Outdoor Education Facilities:
Green Living. The Edge was designed from the ground up to be the most sustainable, environmentally sound outdoor education facility in Ontario. Our operations, facilities and staff honour our connection with the earth with our programs as well as our footprint in day to day operations.
We invite you to visit and appreciate our efforts at being a low carbon, sustainable, eco-friendly, responsible provider of Algonquin Park retreats and adventures at our unique Outdoor Education facility.
- Practice no-trace camping as you hike and paddle with us in nature.
- Taste the difference in fresh organic grains and preserves, locally raised meat, organically grown fair trade coffee and home grown vegetables.
- Enjoy hot showers and use our energy efficient lights powered by the sun shining on our 22 solar panels.
- Participate in our comprehensive recycling program.
- Walk on our boardwalk made of 100 % recycled plastic.
- Stay in a century old log cabin - recycled and rebuilt right here.
- Meet local facilitators, support staff and guides who walk gently on the earth and invite you to do the same.
Northern Edge Algonquin recieved the Industry Excellence in Sustainable Tourism Award at the 2010 Ontario Tourism Awards Gala.
