Algonquin Provincial Park Tourist Trap Tips by sim1 Top 5 Page for this destination

Moose Bus?!

Hmmm, I have to admit that I was a bit shocked to see this bus on highway 60, standing on the side of the road. A busload full of tourist got out of the bus to see the moose on the side of the road. Of course I love to spot a moose myself, so I can understand everyone would like that too. But I don't think this is the way to explore Algonquin Park. Of course you'll see a moose this way, but that is not 'all' what Algonquin Park is about. You need to get out of the car or bus and try to get 'into the park'. Go hiking, canoeing, biking, that's the way you can really feel what Algonquin Park is all about. Don't fall into this trap, taking this bus, and only see Algonquin by stopping on a few spots, see a moose, and travel to your next destination in Canada. You will never discover the real beauty of Algonquin Park or Ontario that way.
