Limited Edition Spring Daytrip: Searching for Moose!
Moose are one of the most iconic animals in Canada, and seeing one in the wild is an unforgettable experience!
Algonquin Park has a very healthy population of moose and in the spring, the Highway 60 corridor through the park is a great place to spot some Algonquin moose. They love the new sprouting plants in the ditches and open areas and come out in force to feed after a long winter.
This trip will include hiking a portion of the Mizzy Lake trail and we will do several stops along highway 60 at the spots known to be popular for moose spotting. If we do not see a moose we will still have a great time hiking and exploring the beauty of this park.
Please note: Although we hope to see moose during this trip, WE CAN NOT GUARANTEE A MOOSE SPOTTING! If we encounter moose, we will view them from a safe and respectful distance and in a way that causes them the least amount of disruption.
