How To Get the Most out of The Temiskaming Lake Tour

In the wilds of Northern Ontario, Canada, but only a short day’s drive from Toronto or Ottawa, Lake Temiskaming is a wilderness gem with comforts aplenty.

Temiskaming is one of Ontario’s deepest lakes (indeed, it’s named after the Algonquin word for “deep water”), so water activities of all kinds can be enjoyed, but there’s so much to see and do around the lake that it’s worth a road trip.

The Temiskaming Lake Tour spans two provinces (Ontario and Quebec), three cultures (English, French, and Algonquin), and a whole lot of fun. With a ton of activities on both water and land, outdoor and indoor attractions, and things to do for all ages and interests, the tour is a guaranteed good time.
