Canadian vacation,.. where to go?
My fiancee and I are taking a 10 day vacation in the beginning on August, driving from NYC to Canada. Well first off, what is there to do at Manicouagan Lake? I know it’s a 210 million year old meteor crater and it’s way up north but what is there to do besides fish and tool around in a boat? On the other hand we are considering going to Quebec City and working our way up to the tip of the Gaspe Peninsula or going through Maine and then to New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. We like to camp, thus avoiding hotels and paying a fortune for room rentals and we like to hike too. We aren’t really into fancy restaurants and glitzy stuff. Odd, unique out of the way places interest us. Tourist spots with rude, fat, noisy dorks are a turn off.
well, i can’t help with the manicougan lake, but i have gone camping along the QEW and the st laurence river
you can start by driving through maine, going on to NB, NS, go across the bridge (great view, kind of frightening) to PEI, get some red sand, camp at one of the numerous parks there. then you can head back towards mainland, through NB, back into quebec. I just drove straight through to around quebec city, camped, went to quebec city, did the tourist thing (okay, it’s inevitable. it’s a tourist attraction, after all.) you can go on to Montreal, although it’s pretty similar. then into Ontario, maybe to Ottawa (though i have to admit it isnt that big of a deal if you skip ottawa). niagara falls is very awe-inspiring, if you dont mind going out of your way to drive a bit south. odd places? not many in canada. it is canada, after all. sorry for such boring suggestions, but i’m sure you’ll find lots more if you search up wildlife and outdoor programs.
