Beginning June 1, backcountry camping and day-use will be permitted in non-operating provincial parks and conservation reserves where these activities are normally available. Party size must not exceed the limit set out under the emergency order in force under s.7.0.2 (4) of the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act.
Before you visit: check what facilities/activities are available and pack what you need (e.g. water, snacks, mask/face covering, and hand sanitizer). Postpone your visit if you have any symptoms of COVID-19 or have been asked to isolate.
Please note winter activities are weather dependent, please check the Ontario Parks Ski Report or local weather forecasts for snow conditions.
When you visit: Continue to follow public health advice including practicing physical distancing by keeping at least two metres from others, wearing a face covering where required, when physical distancing may be a challenge or not possible and when entering indoor public spaces, and wash your hands regularly with soap and water or use alcohol-based hand sanitizer if soap and water are not available.
Facilities
Geological attractions in the park include examples of volcanic dikes from the Early Precambrian period and metamorphic hybrid minerals created from pressures deep within the earth’s crust. You might also spot some “felsic” igneous specimens. Felsic is a hybrid word referring to any light-coloured matter of igneous origin, part feldspar and part silica.
Park Facilities and Activities: Road access, parking, and trails to the water are the only facilities for visitors. Canoeing, swimming, and fishing are the recommended recreational activities.
Location: On Highway 11 about 110 km north of North Bay. Access via the Montreal River and Bay Lake, or by road off Highway 11 south of Latchford.
