Lake Opeongo
The biggest lake in Algonquin Park is home
to the Algonquin Outfitters Opeongo Store and Water Taxi.
Opeongo Lake is Algonquin Park's largest body of water,
well known for some of the best lake trout and Smallmouth
bass fishing in the park. For canoeists or sea kayakers
wishing a trip with no portages, the many campsites dotting
the bays and islands of the big lake offer a unique alternative
to a traditional lake and river route. A water taxi ride
can give your trip a head start by eliminating the 15-25
km paddle to the main portages at the far end of the lake,
or the boat can drop you off at your favourite Opeongo campsite.
The Opeongo Lake access point (access # 11) offers excellent
access to the central canoe tripping area of Algonquin Park.
 The
store is located right at the access point, at the south
end of Lake Opeongo in Algonquin Park. Our Opeongo Store
offers canoe & kayak rentals, complete outfitting, water
taxi service, as well as an outstanding selection of fish
tackle, camping supplies, clothing, footwear, souvenirs,
groceries, live bait, and ice.
Opeongo Lake is a very popular destination
for day trippers. Canoe and kayak rentals are available
for the day and the lake offers a wide variety of scenic
destinations. Our popular Hailstorm
Creek Wildlife Viewing Trip allows day visitors to
access the Hailstorm Creek Nature Reserve. This protected
area offers excellent wildlife viewing, particularly for
moose. Our unique program allows day-trippers to explore
Hailstorm Creek without having to worry about paddling on
the big lake - a water taxi transports people and canoes
safely from our store to the mouth of the creek in 20 minutes.
The trip price includes canoe rental, all safety equipment,
water taxi transportation and bag lunch. This trip is available
only at the Opeongo Store.
