Victoria Day Long Weekend, perfect opportunity to get outside. Marten River Provincial Park is on Hwy 11 about 60 km north of North Bay. It is within about four to five hours from Mississauga, a reasonable distance for a quiet long weekend getaway.
For the Off Road Enthusiasts, there are several Forest Service Roads in the area.
