Marten River - in Ontario's Near
North
The Marten River area is located some
45 kilometers south of Temagami. A variety of activities and
services are offered including camping facilities, children’s
programs, guided tours and exhibits.
Summer hiking trails winding through the
majestic forest become cross country trails in the winter. Visit the
authentic old Logging Camp within Marten River Park. Explore at your
leisure or participate in the Park’s annual logging days in July.
Fishermen are drawn to the lakes by
Walleye, Northern Pike, Bass, Perch, Whitefish and Trout. Volunteers
operate a local Fish Stocking program, ensuring the future of the fish
population.
Hunters come from all over to the Marten
River area. Resort operators and outfitters guarantee to do their utmost
to provide all the required necessities.
Go on a quiet hike through the Provincial
Crown Game Preserve (over 55,000 hectares of unspoiled wilderness) or
hike through the network of back country trails. Moose and wildlife
abound. Maybe you’ll spot that rare bird you’ve been patiently waiting
for.
There’s a host of accommodations to
choose from. Some people prefer to stay at one of the motels while
others stay at comfortable resort or lodge cottages. Restaurants, gift
shops and groceries, gas, licenses post office, bait and tackle, hunting
and fishing guides are among the many small businesses that help make
Marten River a one-stop destination.
