Experience the thrill of snowmobiling along majestic winter trails with Highlands Wilderness Tours.

If you’ve ever wanted to try snowmobiling but lack the equipment, passes, or experience, consider checking out Highlands Wilderness Tours. They offer guided snowmobiling experiences and provide everything you need, including snowmobiles, helmets, balaclavas, and instruction. The snowmobiles are two-seaters, allowing you to drive solo or bring a partner along for the ride. They offer multi-hour trips through the beautiful and lush forests of Hastings Highlands, located just south of Algonquin Park and if you're looking for accommodations, they now have a four-season off-grid cabin available on-site.
