For world-class wilderness canoeing in the Boreal Forest, look no further than Wabakimi Provincial Park – more than 2,000 km of lake and river routes, including excellent white-water. There are no roads within the park so visitors must arrive by canoe, train or plane. Walleye and northern pike fishing and wildlife viewing in the park are legendary.
Some areas of the park are more easily travelled than others. Portages and campsites are not signed so trip planning and wilderness navigation skills are necessary.
