We let campers stay in our parking lot where they can enjoy a beautiful sunset and many hiking trail just minutes away from us. Campers can walk down to the river and maybe see a beaver hard at work. Campers will not be allowed to walk to the farm as insurance won't let us. There are many activities that can be done around here in nature and we will provide a map and explanation of where the activity is and provide website links as well of the many hiking trail around us. There is a lake about 12 min drive from us with a nice beach. We will provide a pick nick table and can set up a badminton net as well for those that like to have a badminton game.

Paju Peak Experience

7 sites · RVs, Tents1700 acres · Nipigon, ON
Welcome to Paju Peak in the community of Red Rock. 1700 acres of nature, history, and incredible views! Enjoy the recreation of the land, from hiking, trail walking, and fishing. Visit the massive cliffside where the locals of Red Rock often go to walk their dogs. This was previously a copper mining site back in the day and if you take a look around many of the clearings in the land you are able to see the old mining locations and can take a look into the rock face where miners were hard at work back in the days when it was operational. The gravel roads are partially maintained so we recommend travelling slow and 4x4 drive would be beneficial. There are signs as you turn onto the property. **Please note, everyone using the land must pack in and pack out all items.** There is a map attached in the pictures to help locate where the spots are and find your way throughout the land. If you have any further questions, feel free to send me a message and we'll get in touch! Thanks!

The best camping near Edward Island Provincial Park guide

Overview

About

Venture to the remote Edward Island Provincial Park, a hidden gem nestled in the vast waters of Lake Superior. This nature reserve beckons the intrepid explorer with its dense boreal forests and geological wonders. Geologists and rockhounds will revel in the diverse volcanic and sedimentary formations, while the serene cobble beaches offer a tranquil escape. Accessible only by boat, the park promises an exclusive adventure amid Canada's rugged wilderness.

When to go

The best time to visit Edward Island Provincial Park is during the warmer months, from late spring to early fall, when the lake's icy grip has thawed. This period offers the most comfortable weather for boating and exploring the island's geological features. Winter visits are only for the most experienced adventurers, as conditions can be harsh and access more challenging.

Know before you go

  • Ensure you have the necessary boating skills and equipment for safe travel to this boat-access-only park.
  • Check weather conditions before your visit, as Lake Superior can be unpredictable.
  • Prepare for a self-sufficient trip; there are no facilities or services available on the island.
  • Respect the natural environment; take all trash with you and leave no trace.
  • Be aware of any park alerts or closures by contacting the Thunder Bay District Health Unit prior to your trip.
