Agawa
Canyon is World Famous for it's rugged beauty and the Chapleau
Wildlife Preserve is the World's Largest Wildlife Sanctuary. These two great natural
attractions are connected by the Algoma Central Railway for a
unique 2 day rail excursion.
Board the Agawa Tour Train in Sault Ste. Marie at 8:00 a.m.
and enjoy the hardwood forests of southern Algoma on your way
to Agawa Canyon. The towering cliffs, sparkling waterfalls and
the beautiful serenity of the Canyon will delight you during
your 2 hour stopover at Agawa Canyon.
At about 1:30 p.m. board the Algoma Central Railway's
passenger train in Agawa Canyon and continue north into the
boreal forest of northern Algoma. Late in the afternoon you will
reach Lake Wabatongushi, the second largest lake in the Chapleau
Wildlife Preserve. There you will be met by Al Errington and
taken on a 15 minute pontoon boat ride to Errington's Wilderness
Island Resort where you can

After you
settle into your very comfortable
suite, enjoy a delicious dinner in our licensed dining room. After
dinner you can relax around the resort, go for a walk
on some of our nature trails, or enjoy a guided boat tour of
Lake Wabatongushi for wildlife viewing.
There has been no hunting or trapping inside this 3,000 sq
mile (7,000 sq km) wildlife sanctuary since 1925 and you have a
good chance of seeing wildlife in their native habitat such as
moose, black bear, bald eagles and Loons. After returning to the
resort, relax and let the haunting cries of the Loons lull you
to sleep.
Next morning enjoy a sumptuous breakfast, then do a little more
exploring of the area either on your own or on another guided
tour. Around 11:00 a.m. we will bring you to meet the passenger
train for the scenic return journey to Sault Ste. Marie.
In 2010 this 2 day excursion can be reserved for departures on
Thursdays, Saturdays, Mondays from June 8 to September 21.
