More to Explore
Not an avid angler or simply looking for another way to take in the views? Located in the heart of the pristine wilderness of Northern Manitoba, there’s a lot to explore everywhere you look and more to do than just fishing.




Summer
Hiking the Limestones
Lake Athapapuskow in the Cree language means “rock all around” which includes the magnificent Limestone cliffs with sheer drops that are said to be thousands of years old. Grab your camera and head out across the waters of Lake Athapapuskow by boat to the South end of Little Athapap where you will arrive at Camp Whitney. From here you will begin your hike on the Brian King Nature Trail which is a self-guided trail that winds its way from Camp Whitney to Limestone Narrows, passing through a variety of forest types and terrain.
Starting on solid Precambrian Shield granite and schist and ending at a set of limestone crevices, which are part of what was once the bed of an ancient sea. There are a number of interpretive plaques along the way to give you a feel for the ecosystem you are in.
You pass from typical Boreal Forest of mixed white spruce and poplar through an area where old field succession is evident with the profuse growth of wild roses and invading willows, sarsaparilla, honeysuckle, and poplar trees. See clearly the markings black bears have left on some of the trees. Follow an old firebreak and witness an amazing transition point with a black spruce forest on one side of the trail and lush mixed poplar, balsam fir and white spruce on the other. Continue along into black spruce and break through into a pure mature trembling aspen forest. Keep your eyes open for delicious dewberries, blueberries and in the spring, morel mushrooms. If you’re quiet you may sneak up on a family of ruffed grouse hunting for berries. This hiking tour is suitable for beginners of all ages and has no time limit, you go at your own pace which can take up to a half day or more.

Winter
Cross Country Skiing
Enjoy the peaceful charm of cross country skiing, away from the crowds. Hit the groomed track for skate and classic skiing, or venture into the backcountry to forge your own path, either way it’s a chance to get close to nature.
The Flin Flon Ski Club manages 28 kms of groomed trails- classic & skate, beginner to expert. Non-members are welcome to use the trails at a cost of $10 per adult or $5 per student.
Winter
Snowshoeing
Trekking through the snow with the aid of snowshoes is an excellent way to travel through and take in the winter landscape without needing the technical skills of a skier. Embark on a self guided tour over the Canadian Shield and explore trails through the forest or head out across the wide open snow covered landscape of our beautiful Northern Manitoba lakes.
We recommend guests wear warm winter gear. We suggest layering a lightweight base layer with a medium to heavy weight sweater (temperature dependent), a winter jacket, snow pants, gloves, warm socks, and a toque and scarf or balaclava. Warm footwear is essential. A small backpack is also a good idea to carry your camera, binoculars, water and snacks.
