Winter Activities

Winter camping and expeditioning are all the rage! What a canoe trip is to the summer our Winter Camping Adventures allow you snowshoe, backcountry ski, pull your own toboggan.. no purer way to explore Algonquin in winter!

Choose Your Level of Immersion

Our adventures provide a variety of immersive experiences, including day trips to a wall tent setup, one-night learn to winter camp, and multi-day winter travel expeditions.

The Majesty of Winter

In winter, wildlife leaves behind tracks in the snow—silent evidence of moose, deer, and wolves that roam the area. The tall pines are frosted with snow and as the sun rises and sets it casts varying shades of pink and orange over the wide open spaces of the frozen lakes.

Winter Expedition

Enjoy an evening at the Algonquin Log Cabin with fireside meal while your preparing for your expedition. From the cozy Algonquin Log Cabin, snowshoe through pristine, frozen landscapes, hauling toboggans across snow-covered trails and experience winter camping in a heated wall tent.

Learn to Winter Camp

As temperatures outside plunge, winter shelters provide a cozy refuge. A heated wall tent with a wood stove blends the rustic charm of traditional camping with the comfort of warmth. Building a snow quinzhee is not only a vital winter survival skill but also an enjoyable activity. Unwind by the warmth and crackle of the fire after an exciting day of winter expeditioning! Snowshoe across frozen lakes and through waist deep snow. Learn all about heated wall tents and winter backcountry travel skills

Client Testimonials

“This was an incredible experience. The snow covered terrain looked magical. The sounds and the serenity – the crunch of our steps and the quiet of winter. We loved it all! ”  -Taylor 

“We’ve been home two hours and already researching a return in the Summer… That’s how good our weekend was!

On arrival at the chalet, Ivan was already waiting for us to show us over the chalet. We were surprised at how well equipped it was – a fridge/freezer and gas oven and hob as well as all sorts of kitchen implements. We soon had the wood burning fire going – the entire chalet was exceptionally toasty warm!”

-Julie
