Camp Hurontario has always been well known for its excellent, progressive tripping program. Campers 8-11 will have the opportunity to take Bay trips in the area around the camp where we offer trips in the Massassauga Wildlands Provincial Park which costs a small registration fee for camper and staff entering the Park. For campers 12-16, Camp Hurontario offers trips in eight different regions of Northern Ontario and in Northern Quebec.

Specialized trips in the Magnetewan, Restoule, and Pickerel River Basin are available and, for the majority of our campers who are 12-13 years old, these trips will be a part of their summer program. There is an additional charge for these advanced trips to cover the high transportation costs. Parental permission for some of these trips may be required. Permission forms with detailed outlines of these trips will be mailed with the confirmation package. |

Whitewater Tripping Program |
 |
|
|
|
 |
 |
For campers who are 15 or 16 years old, Hurontario offers the opportunity to experience the incredible fun of white water tripping. This program involves an excellent training course in the spring and then a choice of five AMAZING river trips, which vary from 10 to 21 days in length. These trips are very popular with senior campers and the numbers are limited. In the spring, senior campers will have the opportunity to choose one of these river trips or our senior northern outpost. |

CAMPERS 12,13,14 - A CHOICE OF FOUR EXCELLENT TRIPS
A) THE PICKEREL (5-6 DAYS)
Campers trip for 5-7 days on the Pickerel River, which is north of Parry Sound off Highway 400. The trip encompasses travel both on the River itself and travel on protected areas of the Bay. The Pickerel River trip travels through beautiful scenic areas dotted with old fishing camps. With several arms of the river to travel, the Pickerel River offers excellent, safe tripping. This trip is reached after a boat trip and car ride from the camp.
B) THE RESTOULE (5-6 DAYS)
Camp Hurontario has tripped the Restoule River for the last ten years. This is an excellent trip of seven days in length and involves travel both on the Restoule and the French. It offers wildlife, good fishing and few people other than trippers. The groups travel by boat, then van, both to arrive at the start and to finish the trip.
C) THE FRENCH RIVER (5-6 DAYS)
Historically famous as part of the trip route which the Courier de Bois paddled, this trip involves both travel on the French and the interesting Little French River. An excellent trip of five to seven days' length, this trip offers exciting travel on the river itself with few people in its upper reaches. This trip involves a boat and van ride to and from camp.
D) THE NEW MAGNETEWAN TRIP (6 DAYS)
Campers trip from Lake Wawashkish to Brit. Several years ago, the Government declared the Magnetewan River Basin a wildlife preserve. As a result, it is ideal for canoe trips. The trip on the Mag offers river and lake travel combined. There are several routes with varying degrees of difficulty. The scenery is spectacular, and the fishing is very good. The trippers have the fun of van transportation to the river's start and a pick up where the river enters the Georgian Bay. A great new trip.

CAMPERS AGES 13-14: A TRIPPING ADVENTURE
The MAGNETEWAN RIVER
9 DAYS
Several years ago, the Government declared the Magnetewan River Basin a wildlife preserve. As a result, it is ideal for canoe trips. The trip on the Mag offers river and lake travel combined. There are several routes with varying degrees of difficulty. The scenery is spectacular, and the fishing is very good. The trippers paddle home through the 30,000 islands and enter the camp bay with beaming faces as they paddle with synchronized vigour to the centre of camp bay! In order to reach the Mag, a boat and van ride from the camp are required.
The NORTH CAMP
10-12 Days
Over 30 years ago, Hurontario purchased a fishing camp on Lake Windemere in the Chapleau Game Preserve. From this northern outpost, senior campers experience an amazing tripping adventure on lakes filled with wildlife, great fishing and still untouched by the outside world. The campers travel by boat, then van to Sudbury and finally by train to Lake Windemere - a trip which takes a full day and in itself is an adventure! At the North camp, there are many routes from which to choose. The campers and staff discuss their route choices thoroughly before leaving main camp. Senior campers who have taken these trips say this highlights their stay at Camp Hurontario!
We are able to send four trips each month to the North Camp, which is decided by the equipment needs of these trips plus the space available at the North Camp. We will do our best to assure all 14 year olds a trip out of the North Camp.
Due to extensive travel costs arising from special travel arrangements necessary to
reach the North Camp plus travel costs which may be incurred while at the north camp to reach destinations removed from the actual Camp.
