Algonquin Provincial Park
Park · Nipissing
"The first excursion delivered maximum payoff in almost no time at all: Algonquin Park’s 1.2-mile Lookout Trail, which rewards a fit hiker like Slotopolsky with a tremendous panorama after about 15 minutes of walking. “The trail took me along this massive cliff overlooking the whole forest,” he says. “It was breathtaking. So serene and peaceful—the opposite of the traffic, construction, subway delays, and other typical New York aggravations. I didn’t want to leave.”"

"He began the next day well-rested from his night at Deerhurst Resort,and stand-up paddleboarding on Oxtongue Lake allowed him to change pace once again. [...] “Paddleboarding combined the workout of the obstacle course with the insanely beautiful views of the hike,” Slotopolsky explains, and the experience put him into an almost meditative state. “The slightest shift can redistribute your weight and send you into the lake, so I had to be hyper-aware of my balance. At the same time, I was paddling around and getting a new view of the scenery with each turn.”
