Description
The Donald Rogert Canoe Base sets the stage for the Atikokan program that is characterized by an increased canoeing area including the northern and western portions of the Quetico Provincial Park. The canoeing area north of Atikokan is the real focus point of the Base. A paved road bisects this canoeing area and consequently makes for several alternatives such as; numerous drop off / pick up points, float plane access, and extended one-way trips. Much of the area north of Atikokan is zoned for multiple use recreation. This multiple use recreation fits well with wilderness canoe trips. The area around Atikokan is referred to as "The Canoe Capital of Canada".
Upon arrival, you will stay in one of our cabins and eat in our dining hall while you plan the details of your trip, check out gear, and meet your guide. After than, you're on your way to the wilderness.
