Algonquin Logging Museum
An outdoor logging museum near the East Gate, where a 1.3 km trail presents logging camp cabins, a dam and log-hauling boats.
Located near the East Gate, the indoor exhibit hall shows a film on the history of logging in Algonquin. The outdoor loop trail of about 1.3 km links reconstructed logging camp cabins, log slides, dams and the rare steam tugboat “Alligator.” Together they tell the story of change from the 19th-century cutting of white pine to modern forestry. The path is flat and suitable for families, and it takes about 1 hour to see everything.
Opening hours
Exhibition hall approx. 09:00–17:00 (May–Oct)
