• Canadian Camping

    From Darryl Wood@21:4/151 to All on Tue Apr 9 14:33:20 2019
    Not sure if anyone is A, Reading this, or B, from Canada, but I am looking for more off road camping options. I live in Ontario and use a couple peices of crown land, but am looking for more. Drive a jeep, so rough back roads are not an issue. We usually camp in a group of 5+, and have no problem being without power. We enjoy fishing, and are a relatively clean bunch.
    If there is anyone out and about, I am always up for camping discussions. Cheers
    Darryl.

    [off-road and camping in Ontario question snipped]

    It's a long time since you posted this, but hey.

    I only know southern Ontario. And only limited parts of that.
    And I have no knowledge whatever about off-road jeep activities.

    Algonquin is beautiful. No jeeps allowed off the road, but still.
    If you are interested in a canoe trip the interior is brilliant.
    Getting a little late in the season but still lots of good
    paddling days left. If you are into winter camping it's also
    brilliant. At least in the snow you don't have to worry about
    getting bitten by mosquitoes.

    I have also spent a lot of time on the Bruce Trail.

    Your best bet for that is to get the guide book and find
    interesting places. Because it goes through a highly varied
    level of population from quite urban to quite wild, you
    should be able to find something that fits your preferences.
    Possibly there is a logging trail or some such that will
    be of interest.

    You can get a lot of valuable information about provincial parks
    in Ontario at this web site.

    One provincial park I go to when I can is Killarney.

    I don't know what the jeep situation is. I know that in the
    winter there are a lot of snowmobile trails.

    And the national parks website is here.

    If you find a nice place, why not take some pictures and post back?

    Good luck. I figured you could just turn off when the pavemment ends and find some primo stuff.
