On my round trip through central Canada I did not want to miss its capital, so I included a stop over in Ottawa on my way from Huntsville to Montréal.
After my early arrival I took the short walk from the Ottawa Central Station to my hotel...
My round trip also included a short visit of Huntsville, a small town located near Algonquin Park.
Huntsville is a popular destination for tourists because it is a great gateway into the park.
Additionally the "Cottage Country" simply is beautiful...
I wanted to include some wild-life experience in my round trip. After some research, Algonquin Provincial Park seemed the perfect choice for hiking or canoeing, so I decided to make a three day canoe trip on my way from Toronto to Ottawa in this park.
