Temagami is my absolute favourite place on Earth. This may, in part, be due to the fact that it was the location of my first extended canoe trip back when I was attending Camp Queen Elizabeth as a Del (Leadership 1 Participant). I had such a positive experience during those 14 days that I ended up starting to guide canoe and kayak trips just two summers later. But this magical place is so much more than a great experience.
Temagami is home to some of the oldest stands of Red and White Pine in the world! It's not unusual to come across trees that are 200-400 years old. Both the Ishpatina Ridge (highest point in Ontario) and Maple Mountain (second highest point and a personal favourite spot to pick wild blueberries with an incredible view) are both found here as well. Temagami's incredible history comes to life in the various petroglyphs found on the rocks and other historical relics scattered throughout the region.
