3 day bikepacking trip along the abandoned CN Railway through Algonquin Provincial Park. The journey began at Kiosk and finished 115 km later in Achray.

This is Algonquin Provincial Park, established in 1893, making it the oldest provincial park in Canada. It spans 1.9 million acres and is home to some of the greatest backcountry trips ever taken.
Upon closer inspection of a map, one will notice the indication of an old railway. Failed negotiations between Canadian National Railway Company and the Provincial Park regarding the transition of ownership lead to the railway being abandoned. On November, 24th, 1995, the steels rails were pulled up, the railway ties removed, and berms cut before and after each bridge to ensure travel along these paths were discouraged. For 25 years the rail trail has lay dormant…until now.
Traveling by bike for 3 days, covering 115 kilometers of the abandoned railway, we would start our journey from the North Western Gate in Kiosk, and finish at the South East Gate in Achray. This will be known as the Trans-Algonquin mountain bike rail trail.
