September 11, 2025,Centenial Ridges - Algonquin Provincal Park

It was "only" 10.2 km, but it was a tough hike.
The "Centenial Ridges" hiking trail is one of the longest in Algonquin Provincial Park.
It goes up and down over hill and dale, or rather, roots and rocks.
Along the way, you can enjoy magnificent views of the park, the forests, and the lakes.

Highly recommended!

Lots of beautiful views of the park's forests and lakes with the leaves …

The running time isn't right at all, we were on the road for over three hours. Great tour with always beautiful views. Quite peppered with stones and roots, you always have to watch your steps. Towards the end of the tour we even came across a cow moose with two young animals - a real highlight

saw a beaver today
the pileated woodpecker was unfortunately too fast for the camera, the young wolf or coyote (difficult to identify: ontario.ca/page/eastern-wolf) on the way back was also too fast for the camera
