“The Lookout” at Algonquin Park

Today’s destination pic is from my visit to Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦 to visit the oldest provincial park in the country; Algonquin Provincial Park!
“The Lookout”, at Algonquin Park is appropriately named, is one of the shorter hikes in Algonquin. The trails’ continuous incline, rewards its visitors with a breathtaking view of the expanse of this provincial treasure.

A vibrant autumnal display of flaming coloured trees, shimmeringly placid lake and glistening rays of sun peacefully ended my day with the sun slipping behind the clouds ⛅️ , then beneath the horizon.

Just when I thought things couldn’t get any better, a bucket list ✅; a moose crossed in front of my path on my drive out. It was truly a magical day💕!

“Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.”
