Arrowhead Provincial Park

"Such a sturdy sign," she said.

Arrowhead is just east of Algonquin and right along Hwy 11. We were surprised by how sandy by how sandy the park was overall. The campsites are fairly standard, though lots of large ones available. Hiking was certainly enjoyable here as there are lots of trails and some nice destinations including river crossings and a waterfall. Above average everything here!

It’s a favourite for winter as well as they over skating through the forest on the trails! Skating! There's great cross-country skiing too!

Some sand there...

Can also walk along this river...

  

Windy Lake Provincial Park

Interestingly we camped here the night they had the biggest wind storms in the last 20 years in the north shore region. “Wow, this park really is windy!” (before we knew how bad the wind storms really were.) Nice swimming on a small lake and good campsites. A nice little campground that’s just a short jaunt west of Sudbury. Sorry, I can't say more - it was more than 10 years ago.. should have started this blog earlier in the process. :-/

Hey, they have all-season yurts too - can't beat that!

See those waves?!
Kidding, the wind was in our faces so they got bigger on the other side of the lake..
