Auld Reekie Lodge ATV Packages: Comfortable Trail Riding in Northeastern Ontario

Looking for a no-hassle ride weekend? Auld Reekie Lodge has your trails, meals, and cabins ready—just bring your machine and leave the planning behind.
Riders look out of two UTVs parked in front of a wooden Auld Reekie Lodge sign on a summer day. There is forest behind them and the dusty trail around them is loaded with tire tracks.

If you're chasing a true off-road escape without the planning stress, Auld Reekie Lodge offers guided ATV packages that deliver big thrills in Ontario’s wilds, the easy way. Located near Gowganda Lake (about three hours north of North Bay or Sudbury), this lodge is a base camp for some seriously excellent riding terrain.
