Nature Getaways

Adventurers and gentle explorers alike can visit the Edge for a taste of our favourite seasonal activities.

Nature Getaways in Algonquin Park, Ontario

Nature plays an important role in all our experiences at Northern Edge Algonquin.  Our location on Kawawaymog Lake is perfectly suited for paddling into Algonquin Park, cycling or cross-country skiing through one of the nearby Forgotten Trails, enjoying a swim at Blueberry Island, or breaking our own trail via snowshoe or skin-ski.

While we once took guests overnight camping in Algonquin Park, we have put a lot of care and loving energy into developing comfortable accommodations and delicious meals that allow our guests to explore nature while staying in a cozy bed, with easy access to all our amenities.  Adventurers and gentle explorers alike can visit the Edge for a taste of our favourite seasonal activities.

Join us for an outdoor getaway and learn how to Stand-Up Paddleboard or Skin Ski, go out on adventurous excursions and return to Gregor’s fabulous cooking featuring local ingredients.  Bask in our wood-fired sauna or gather around a campfire to roast s’mores and share stories.
