This has already been substantially povedenější visit the Canadian countryside. One free weekend in August, we decided to go to the Kawartha Highlands Provincional Park. It is located about 200 km north of Toronto, and is known for its many lakes and the fact that a number of places you can only get to by boat. Which sounds certainly very interesting, do not you think?
Duration: 2 days at 3-4. August 2014 Cost: about $ 80 Car rental in Ontario and indeed it was. Because it is relatively difficult to get to by public transport Kawartha acces direct emisiuni (Get the link weekend, I could not find GoTransit and Greyhound service provider, but it just is not Niagara ...), so we rented a car.
I therefore share this experience. We used the services of Discount and it was not expensive. In two days we paid $ 135 + 40 for gasoline. At 4 people think OK. International driver's license for Ontario too cool completely (after 4 months). And even gave us a brand new car, Hyundai Sonata, bought 2 days ago, and for more than 4 people comfortable acces direct emisiuni enough
A little worse thing - for a refundable acces direct emisiuni deposit for insurance we had to use a credit card. Yes, credit, not debetku. So we gave them our traditional Czech card account that meets all the requirements for a credit card (see article on Banks). A refundable deposit made $ 260 and was the only complication of the whole car.
Actually, one more thing - cars have automatic transmissions in America. I went for the first time in takovémhle car so I was a little back to driving school acces direct emisiuni at age 18 Pretty ass, but after a while I got used to it. To the north!
We got the perfect opportunity to try out a ride on Ontario's highways. And around Toronto are really mad, at least in comparison with the Czech Republic. 4 lanes in each direction (ie. Express circuit) + 2 additional as slower cornering. Overpasses, underpasses, acces direct emisiuni simply craazy Beyond that, then only 2 lanes and far away only 1 lane, yet still motorway. Top speed 110/90 km / h. So much for transport, now about nature itself. Kawartha Highlands Park Provincional
As I wrote, it is a place with many lakes, so typical for Ontario, which is really nice, but, through 'just across the water. So we decided to rent a canoe and explore the area in this way. Of course, with camping. Which proved to be a bit of a problem.
First thing - canoe. I had expected a bit more interested in the long weekend and book a boat forward. Fortunately it did mate, so we could get the first two ships have returned that day. We paid to me outrageous $ 120 per boat and barrels, because we were charged for the full two days. So almost as much as for the car ... But neva, we just took it as it is, like other rule, mandatory reservation for camping outdoors in nature.
It's one of those regulations that annoy me here, but I have to accept them. Because you are in a natural park, you have to pay in advance for a predetermined place. It's not free, on the contrary, will pay $ 16 per person, which I think is enough, despite acces direct emisiuni the fact that you have a grill, toilet 'in the price Well, we came to after all to enjoy in the wild.
And it happened. The lakes are really wonderful. You are literally surrounded by them, waters rise from a small rocky islets, great! Of course it's not about no white water, the water is calm and everything takes longer than you think. It's just different, but still beautiful!
Interest - lakes are occasionally connected stream, but in most cases you have to transfer back to the ship. It's called portáž 'and sometimes you have to insult and over 800 m on the ground up and down. First we tried to wear in their hands, but the head and back are simply better
