Park Explorer

Explore the Land’escapes park as we develop it

Explore the park as we develop it. As a new park, Land’escapes is full of amazing areas that we just haven’t had a chance to develop. This can range from areas with overgrown trails that we haven’t maintained, stretches of forest and wetland without any marked trails, lakes without any established campsites. While we encourage new visitors or beginner backcountry campers to try our curated backcountry trips, the park’s undeveloped areas offer a wide range of challenges for the seasoned hiker or camper.

For more information about these park explorer trips and group excursions, please contact us directly so that we can help put together something specific to you and your interests!

Land'escapes is your one stop for all things outdoor adventure!

Fishing
Want to get bored of catching 3lb bass? Land'escapes is the place for you! The many private lakes have been stocked with bass, offering a mix of lakes with fewer, larger bass, and Jocko Lake that notably got 2 guys nearly 150 bass in an afternoon. Shore lunch has never been easier! With canoes on the shores of most lakes, access is easy - just hike in, set up camp, and spend the afternoon and evening fishing.
Climbing
A remote crag overlooking beautiful blue seas lake is good old Ontario adventure climbing. The remote granite wall has potential for a few weekends worth of single pitch 20 meter + routes.

The climbing is moderate and having had no traffic requires a hardy soul willing to pull on the occasional lichen covered rock, and tiptoe through gnarly ancient cedars on exposed ledges. There are however fun moves on solid, steep rock, and a few mellower slab lines.

Climb a few routes with relatively simple top rope set up or go for the first ground up ascent of 5.10+ routes that could be led on gear. Easier climbing exists but would be run out. The approach is long, the view incredible. A fun climbing challenge.
Biking
Explore the rugged terrain and natural beauty of the Land'escapes trails by bike! There's a diverse experience for riders of all levels. With a mix of rocky terrain, winding singletrack, wide tracks and scenic trails, riders can explore everything from rugged backcountry to tranquil lakes.

Planning a longer bike packing trip? The Central Ontario Loop Trail (COLT) trail runs right through Land'escapes so you can stop over for a night or two and camp right on the lake with canoes waiting for you there.
