With Algonquin Outfitters in Huntsville
This might be the coolest paddling adventure going!
You don’t need to find crown land or go back-country at a provincial park to try this most Canadian of pastimes. You can go canoeing, kayaking or paddleboarding just a few paddle strokes from downtown Huntsville.
Algonquin Outfitters, right on the Muskoka River, has rentals, gear and instruction all available for visitors who want to get out on the river for a paddling adventure that is purely Muskoka. All you need to do is show up with an “I want to do something very cool today” attitude, and Algonquin Outfitters will get you on the water.
Once on the water, you are free to explore the famed Muskoka River and Huntsville’s well-known chain of lakes. Travel upstream into Fairy Lake, the historic Peninsula Canal and into Peninsula Lake, or downstream past the train trestle and Hunter’s Bay, into The Narrows and eventually Lake Vernon.
You will be taken aback by the stunning sights and natural scenery, all so close to the hustle and bustle of charming downtown Huntsville.
Paddle and Dine
The coolest part of a downtown paddling adventure, there are so many amazing restaurants to dine before or after your paddle!
Finish your paddle with a lunch or dinner dining experience at the new Huntsville Brewhouse. The brewpub from Lake of Bays Brewing Co. has been a hit since it opened in early 2018, and is a great way to cap off the trip.
