Come to La Cloche Lake Camp—where every day brings new adventures and lifelong memories.

Exploring & Hiking: La Cloche Lake, with its unique horseshoe shape, spans approximately 2,700 acres and boasts nearly 32 miles of stunning shoreline. Unlike many lakes, most of La Cloche’s shoreline remains in its pristine wilderness state, with only a small portion dotted by cottages. The majority of this untouched beauty is protected within La Cloche Provincial Park, ensuring its natural splendor is preserved for generations to come.

Adventurers will love the short hiking trail that connects La Cloche Lake to the North Channel, as well as the rugged trail starting at Fort La Cloche that winds east along the mountains and reportedly stretches as far as Highway 6. These trails, accessible only by boat, provide a rare opportunity to immerse yourself in the rugged landscapes and serenity of Northern Ontario.
