Take a train to Ontario's Wilderness from downtown Toronto?

Yes You Can!

Take the Ontario Northlander Passenger Train from Toronto's Union Station and be at our resort by noon the next day!
(You can also board the train north of Toronto at Washago, Gravenhurst, Bracebridge, Huntsville, South River and North Bay)

Ontario Northland's passenger train connects Southern Ontario to Northern Ontario. Although Ontario Northland Train only goes as far as Cochrane, they run a bus schuttle from Cochrane to Hearst where you can board the Algoma Central Railway.

Ontario Northland Transportation provides this service as one ticket right from Toronto's Union Station all the way to Hearst. You spend the night in Hearst at one of the hotels then board the Algoma Central Railway Passenger Train the next morning which will bring you to Wabatongushi Lake at about 11:00 am where I will be waiting for you.

Because the Algoma Central Railway passenger train only runs 3 day per week and the Ontario Northland Passenger Train only runs each day except Saturday, you should plan your arrival and departure for specific days. Click here for more information
