Toronto to Achray

[Mattones]

Hey everyone. I booked a camping trip in July at Achray in Algonquin. I have been looking to have everything prepared well before the trip which is why I am starting this now.

 

I read it will take about 6 hours from the GTA? Whats the best route to take? I figure a few of you have been up this way in the past and could help me out.

 

I found this on the internet. which sounds neat although they were going to Pembroke which is in the area somewhat it seems.

took 11 to 60 and accross the park. 5 hours to Pembroke.

Coming back I took 41 all the way to 401 and home. 5 hours from Pembroke. One of the prettiest routes in the province.

Six of one, Half a dozen of the other.....I personally prefer the drive through the park on Hwy 60. I find 41 to be the hwy that never ends for some reason. niether route is significantly faster than the other.

 

I live on the Achray rd and watch the masses move in every Fri afternoon then witness the mass exodus out on Sun afternoon......not that it is over run with people or anything, just a lot more traffic than we are used to in these parts!lol. Have a great trip. honk on your way by.

 

Cheers

Definitely take one way to Achrey and the other home. They are both nice drives.

Thanks I'll be sure to try both routes! Why not something different!
