    Tips

    June 18, 2026

    One of Algonquin Provincial Park's premier backpacking routes, the Western Uplands Trail leads through a rugged landscape of forests, lakes, wetlands, and rocky ridges. The trail network offers several loop options ranging from overnight trips to multi-day adventures, with backcountry campsites scattered along remote lakes. Expect a more challenging experience than Algonquin's day-hiking trails, with frequent elevation changes and long stretches of true wilderness between access points.
