The pink and white quartzite of the LaCloche Mtns inspired many paintings from the Group of Seven. Killarney Provincial Park is one of my favourite parks in Canada and is home to amazing canoeing, hiking, and backcountry camping. Several great day hikes for those looking for something short and sweet.
