Algonquin Visitor Centre


The Algonquin Visitor Centre, opened in 1993, sits high on a rocky ridge offering a spectacular view of the surrounding countryside at km 43.
There's plenty of opportunity for hands-on interaction with the world class exhibits and displays. Take a stroll through the Natural History gallery with its realistic three-dimensional scenes of area plants and animals.
It is not uncommon to see a moose browsing through the wetlands while sipping on coffee or having an ice cream cone in the Sunday Creek Cafe.
The Visitors Centre also houses a theatre featuring educational and entertaining films throughout the day. The Friends of Algonquin operate a gift shop and bookstore which sells educational materials, souvenirs, and gift items.

Hours:
Open daily from late April to late October
Weekends only from early November to late April
