Canoes and Canoeing

The canoe is consider to be one of Canada's Seven Wonders by CBC, and Algonquin Park is a canoeists paradise. Canoe to water, wood to paddle, birch bark to cedar and portage to carry-- the elements that came together to provide the resources to traverse one of the most daunting natural transportation systems in North America. First Nations traded canoes and provided early European visitors with the means to explore the vast regions of North America. The canoe is a gift to all Canadians from our First Nations-truly the Canadian Icon. Several rivers emanate from the Park, including the Madawaska River, and the Oxtonque River, perfect for canoeing.
