Tours & Activities in Kejimkujik National Park

This trip is best suited for folks who want longer hours of paddling and portaging, more solitude and remote campsites. Escape to Kejimkujik’s real solitude— in the southern lakes! Some of the national park’s finest campsites are tucked away amongst these hinterland lakes, where it’s entirely common to not see another paddler for the entire canoe trip. Sandy beaches and warm summertime swimming will relax you while slow sunsets and June fireflies create the backdrop for lifelong memories.

This trip is best suited for folks who want shorter travel days, little or no portaging and lots of time relaxing in camp. This trip is excellent for families with young children. Paddle with Whynot Adventure through the Tobeatic’s century old legacy of fully guided canoe tripping. Drenched in history and lore and balanced with masterful backcountry cuisine, this trip is designed to allow “the wilderness to welcome you, and teach you, and take you to its heart”. From beginners to seasoned paddlers, this trip is perfect for you.

On this tour you'll explore the Mersey River (one of the most beautiful places in the park to paddle, in my opinion). Rendezvous at the Whynot Adventure HQ (Jake's Landing) 15 min before the tour is set to start. We have a large parking lot situated just before you arrive at our location on the river. We recommend bringing a camera as this tour is full of wildlife photography options (I know you're thinking moose and bears, but in Keji we specialize in turtles, giant bullfrogs, muskrat, beavers and white-tailed deer, oh and sometimes a swimming squirrel). On this guided tour you might learn about 'Keji tea' or hear the legend of Jim Charles' Gold, while paddling your canoe or kayak up the river with intermittent stops to take in the magic and learn about some of Keji's secrets. This tour is an 'out n'back' so you'll get to enjoy the gentle current on the way back to Jake's Landing.

This trip is best suited for families with children, or folks who want a slightly easier trip without compromising any adventure. Explore Kejimkujik National Park's classic 3-day canoe adventure. This route has been traveled by many over the decades of park history, and for good reason! Comfortable campsites are connected by a system of small picturesque lakes and rivers dappled in green. Campsites are far enough apart that quite often you feel we're the only group traveling through that wilderness
