With over a hundred kilometres of hiking trails past unique and abandoned vistas, Algonquin Provincial Park is not one to miss this spring.
But if you need a new reason to visit, let it be the Brent Crater — a crater formed from a meteorite with a trail to explore.
Not only is it the first provincial park in Ontario, but it is also one of the largest in the province.
"The Brent Crater was formed when a meteorite crashed to Earth thousands of years ago," shares the site.
We don't know about you, but for us, that's enough of a reason to plan a trip to Algonquin Park.
