With so much of our rugged landscape disappearing, it's astonishing to learn that a traveler can now traverse the 230 km of wilderness between Ontario's Algonquin and Killbear Provincial Parks. The Park-to-Park Trail is a multi-use, four season recreation corridor that is as frequented by moose as it is by people. Situated only 2.5 hours north of Canada's biggest city, the Park-to-Park Trail is a jewel awaiting your discovery.

Day One
Stay at the Century old Sprucedale Hotel and dine. This unique old Hotel is situated adjacent to the trail and is a frequent stop for weary or thirsty travelers traversing the Park-to-Park's wild and natural corridor.
