We will then travel 40 kms to Achray Campground to put in πΆ at Grand Lake.
If you have your own kayak or canoe bring it! otherwise you can rent a canoe or kayak for your trip with Algonquin Portage Store. Don't wait until the last minute to make arrangements. The Portage Store will deliver your canoe or kayak to Grand Lake for your adventure for the day of.
Our journey takes us across Grand Lake and down into Stratton Lake which includes 1 small Portage.
We will continue to the end of Stratton until we arrive at High Falls!!
High Falls has a natural waterslide and is one of the most Majestic places in Algonquin Park or any where for that matter.
There are multiple falls to play in and areas to float and bask in all the beauty. Bring a floatie, towel and don't forget your Sunscreen (Sunscreen that is wild friendly....oh ya bug spray!! π¦π)
Pack a lunch and bring drinks. Water forsure!!
TomyHawK & Aniya will supply the Cheese Cake!! π€£ππ
Please note this adventure consists of minimum of 2 hours paddle each way. Classed as beginner or intermediate paddle. At this time of year we have the sun much longer. Sunsets at 8 pm approximately. This means we must leave High Falls about 5 pm ish. We will gage our return time based on the groups arrival time.
Alternative Date September 13th.
Children are welcome but they require parental supervision at all times. They must wear a life jacket at the Falls as well as in the canoes. There will be zero tolerance for this rule being broken. If you are not a strong swimmer or are unfamiliar with canoes or kayaks we encourage you to also wear your protective gear.
We will post updates when we have them. We will make posts with recommendations of things to pack. Please let us know if you have any questions.
For those who are visiting out of town we have tent accommodations at the Hawksnest for the night before our adventure.
Much love and we look forward to being Loonie with you all in Algonquin Provincial Park 2025!!

After our trip you are welcome back to The Hawksnest for fire, hottub and foods.
