Happy camper ⛺⁠⁠Would you believe that I've never been to Algonquin Provincial Park in the fall? (Or at least that I remember... apparently we used to drive through the park to get to Ottawa every September when I was a wee babe.)⁠⁠As an adult, however, I've only visited the park during a blinding snowstorm in the middle of winter. ⁠⁠And let me just say, there's a reason this park is so popular in the fall! The colours were 🔥⁠⁠I had the opportunity to visit the park for a pretty epic elopement shoot (you can check out a sneak peek of that shoot over on @wildpeachphotography)⁠⁠With the daily permitting system, the park didn't feel super busy, even on a peak fall weekend. ⁠⁠If you're looking to visit Algonquin during the fall here are some tips:⁠🍂 get your park permit online asap! (if you have a season's pass, you can use that number to get in for free!)⁠🍂 visit on weekdays if you can⁠🍂 start from the east gate and head west, since most of the traffic is going west to east!⁠🍂 be patient and enjoy the gorgeous scenery!⁠⁠⁠•⁠•⁠•⁠•⁠•⁠#DiscoverON #OntarioTravel #AdventureOntario #OntarioParks #FindYourselfHere #Algonquin #AlgonquinPark #AlgonquinProvincialPark #ExploreOntario #Moody_Moments #ImagesOfCanada #ShotOnPixel #GoodTimesOutside #EscapeTheCity #GetOutAndExplore #WomenWhoExploreOntario #MoodyVibes #FallColours #FallColoursCanada #FallColoursOntario #FallFoliage #Fall2021 #OctoberFeels

HAVE YOU HEARD? These two Ontario small towns are given top-tier status by @travelandleisure and I couldn't agree more! 🍂⁠⁠A recent article written by @juliaeskins for Travel + Leisure listed the best small towns across Canada, listing 12 in total from coast to coast to coast. ⁠⁠If you're from rural Ontario, you can probably guess which small towns in Ontario were listed - Elora and Niagara-on-the-Lake. These places are popular for a reason! ⁠⁠These idyllic towns are such quaint spots that are perfect for day trips and weekend getaways alike. ⁠⁠If you're looking for a place to visit in the fall, Elora's monster month is a great place to get those 👻spooky szn vibes.👻 And when winter hits, don't discount visiting NOTL since they have delicious ice wine and a coziness that you won't want to miss.⁠⁠PS: Check the links in my bio for a guide to Elora and a video about NOTL's Icewine festival.⁠⁠•⁠•⁠•⁠•⁠•⁠#DiscoverON #OntarioTravel #MyOntario #DestinationOntario #EloraFergus #CentreWellington #WellingtonCounty #Elora #ByTheGrand #BackyardAdventure #NiagaraOnTheLake #VintageHotels #PrinceOfWalesHotel #NOTL #UncoverTwentyValley #TwentyValley #NOTLWine #MyNiagara #VisitNiagara #VisitCanada #EscapeTheCity #PerfectGetaway #WomenWhoExploreOntario #WeekendTrips #WeekendWanderer #OntarioForYou #WeekendGetaways #TravelMoments

🍂 8 Tips for a great Autumn experience in Ontar

🍂 8 Tips for a great Autumn experience in Ontario 🍁⁠⁠Happy first day of fall!! It's arguably the best season of the year. I love the crisp and misty mornings, the colours changing on the leaves, the comfy sweaters and fall boots. ⁠⁠🍂 Tip 1: Research when the fall colours will be peaking. Ontario Parks has a fall colour report, ⁠🍁 Tip 2: If you want to extend your fall season, start in the north and work your way south. The colours change quicker up north versus the south. ⁠🍂 Tip 3: Find times and places that aren't going to be busy. The early bird gets the worm, or in this case, the early riser gets people-free places. Sunrises are great times to visit places that get busy. If you're not an early riser, avoid popular places like Algonquin and Bruce Peninsula. ⁠🍁 Tip 4: Go camping or glamping. It's a great way to experience the season. ⁠🍂 Tip 5: Go on a food tour! Fall is harvest time in Ontario and that means primetime for delicious fresh fruits and veggies, baked goods and tasty treats from places all over the province. ⁠🍁 Tip 6: Go for a hike. Fall means cooler weather and fewer bugs, so hiking is a more pleasurable experience. Hiking in the fall is a great way to experience the fall colours too!⁠🍂 Tip 7: Visit a scenic lookout! These are some of the best places to get a birds-eye view of the changing colours.⁠🍁 Tip 8: Don't forget to bring your camera to capture those gorgeous fall photos!⁠⁠You can find out more fall destinations to visit in the fall on my blog, just search "fall"⁠⁠📍 Arrowhead Provincial Park⁠⁠•⁠•⁠•⁠•⁠•⁠#ArrowheadProvincialPark #TravelOntario #WomenWhoExploreOntario #OntarioOutdoors #OutboundOntario #OntarioNature #FindYourselfHere #OntarioParks #DiscoverCanada #VisitCanada #WildCanada #FindMeOutside #HikeON #WhyIHike #SheHikes #WomenOutdoors #ExplorersEdge #MuskokaMoment #Muskoka #LoveMuskoka #HuntsvilleOntario #SunriseLover #MoodyVibes #FallColours #FallColoursCanada #FallColoursOntario #FallFoliage

💙 THIS IS MY FAVOURITE NATIONAL PARK ⁠💙⁠

💙 THIS IS MY FAVOURITE NATIONAL PARK ⁠💙⁠⁠Screw the mountains. Screw the ocean. This one right here makes my heart sing. And yet, it's one of the least visited parks on this side of Canada. ⁠⁠(Seriously, there were under 10,000 visitors last year)⁠⁠The northern shore of Lake Superior, where Pukaskwa National Park is located, is rugged and remote. Pukaskwa National Park, which makes up about 1,900 sq. km. of forest and coastline, is the perfect example of the beauty of Lake Superior.⁠⁠It’s nearly 12 hours of driving from Toronto, almost four hours from Thunder Bay and five hours from Sault. Ste. Marie.⁠⁠Pukaskwa National Park has some of the best hiking and camping in the province. You can also swim (if you’re brave enough), try your hand at backcountry camping, and find the best vistas overlooking Lake Superior.⁠⁠I'm so happy I got the chance to return to Pukaskwa this year to hike the shorter trails I missed out on last year. It was such a stellar day, perfect for hiking! ⁠⁠•⁠•⁠•⁠•⁠•⁠#ParksCanada #ParksSmart #PukaskwaNationalPark #Pukaskwa #HikingWomen #GoodTimesOutside #GetOutAndExplore #FindMeOutside #WhyIHike #NorthernOntario #NorthernLife #LakeSuperior #DiscoverON #AdventureOntario #OntarioForYou #TravelOntario #DiscoverOntario #WomenWhoExploreOntario #ExploreOntario #OntarioTravel #YoursToDiscover #OntarioOutdoors

Just drone things 🤷‍♀️⁠⁠I haven't broken out my drone in a while (it's been such a busy summer). So I thought flying it while my dad was sailing in his newly-acquired, beat-up old sailboat would be the perfect opportunity. ⁠⁠Can you believe this is the last summer weekend?! Because I can't. Where the hell did this year go? Like yesterday was 2019 right? ⁠⁠What are you up to on the last summer weekend?⁠⁠•⁠•⁠•⁠•⁠•⁠#DiscoverON #OntarioTravel #LakeEugenia #GreyHighlands #VisitGrey #ColourItYourWay #Sailing #Sailboat #SailingAdventure #SailboatLife #SailboatLove #SailingOntario #DJI #DJIMavicMini #DronePointOfView #FromWhereIDrone #WomenWhoDrone #DroneLife
