What we liked best about Ontario’s Pukaskwa National Park is that it offers outstanding remote wilderness but is easily accessible. Tucked away along the northeast shore of Lake Superior, it lies roughly halfway between Thunder Bay and Sault Ste. Marie, and only 15 km off the Trans Canada Highway. The one and only road to the park is just east of the town of Marathon…. Read moreGreat Day Hikes in Pukaskwa National Park
Did you know that you can travel a third of the way across Saskatchewan while staying in the scenic Qu’Appelle Valley?

Springtime in Saskatchewan brings one of the most exciting times for wildlife viewing and photography.
