My round trip also included a short visit of Huntsville, a small town located near Algonquin Park.
Huntsville is a popular destination for tourists because it is a great gateway into the park.
Additionally the "Cottage Country" simply is beautiful...
I always wanted to see Niagara Falls so I incorporated a side trip to the Niagara region into my round trip to Canada.
This excursion also included a short visit to the United States of America and Niagara-on-the-Lake.
I really loved this stopover...
I wanted to include some wild-life experience in my round trip. After some research, Algonquin Provincial Park seemed the perfect choice for hiking or canoeing, so I decided to make a three day canoe trip on my way from Toronto to Ottawa in this park.
