SPRING at Parkway Resort on Oxtongue Lake.
Traditionally a transition period for nature and humans alike. Lakes free up from the ice the middle of April.
 Animals, which vanished over the winter come back. Most often the Moose and Loons. You can see them along the Highway 60 corridor in the early morning and dusk, as the salt water after the cold Canadian winter, draws them in. If you wish to have a close encounter with these amazing creatures this is the perfect time. It is the time to see this years newborns with their mothers, they will be shedding their winter coats, ready for the warmer weather.
If you are a birder, you will no doubt be aware that it is a time when the migratory birds return from warmer climbs, bird watchers from all over the world will come to Algonquin Park for the Boreal Forest residents.
 Spring is another truly beautiful time to hike Algonquin, with its fresh vibrant greens of new shoots and leaves, and the promise of another wonderful season. Once the lake is safe enough for the canoes to be put out for the free use of our guests. Don't be surprised to see a  Beaver out making repairs to his lodge.   You may be privileged to see the family of Loons also out with their young.

FALL / AUTUMN at Parkway Resort on Oxtongue Lake

The Algonquin Park Region is known for its stunning beauty in the Autumn / Fall season.

Photographers both novice and professional come from all over for the perfect photo, be it sunrise, or sunset, mist covered lakes and panoramic views. Autumn is an inspiration for writers, poets, photographers and artists.

 

Autumn in Huntsville, Lake of Bays and Algonquin Park may be the best season of the year, thanks to the fall colours. Throughout the area, leaves change colour with the seasons but in many regions, the colour scheme is a more muted yellow and gold. However, it is the vibrant reds punctuating the forest canopy that make the greatest impact and that's where Huntsville and Lake of Bays and Algonquin Park really stand out.
