Plenty of mud and fun on the trails near Kearney

The over 300 kilometers of signed and mapped trails of the Algonquin West ATV Club are second to none, provoking many stops along the way for scenic photo oportunities. Trails are family friendly while somewhat challenging, and well maintained by local volunteers. Trail maps and permits are available at many local retailers. For even more information, visit the club's Facebook Page and check out the many organisaed rides and events.

Other local events such as the Blackfly Festival, Creative Changes Art Show, Sand Lake Regatta, and the Kearney Regatta will round out any vacation, or give the non ATVer in your family plenty to enjoy.
