Get the Gear
The right gear makes exploring the great outdoors a whole lot easier. Rent a boat or gear from Algonquins Outfitters to try your hand at with some guided tours around Algonquin Park. Go gear up to explore the waterways of Haliburton County at Boatwerks in either Haliburton or Minden. Whether you prefer car camping, backpacking your way through the wilderness, or loading your camping gear into a canoe for a paddling trip, prepare for your adventure during a visit to the Deep Roots Adventure outpost and don’t forget to grab some of their meals to-go so you don’t have to waste any adventuring time on food prep.
Get the Guidance
The great thing about having a guide is that they know the lands and the waterways like the backs of their hands. As well, they know the best spots to explore and the best ways to get there. They also often have the gear needed to hit the road or waterways available so that you don’t have to bring your own.
