Please note that this is a private property so either residents are able to use the facilities or you'd have to bring your own water sport equipment if you wanted to access the lake. I was really disappointed as the ontario parks site did not inform us of much and hence we had to travel extra miles to visit another park

This is a large area of fairly new parkland. It encompasses many pristine lakes, hiking areas and wonderful views from high points with in forested areas. The lakes are clean with good visibility if you are a diver. They are also full of fish and a delight to kayak or canoe. The landscapes in areas are worthy of the Group of Seven and contain the wonderful trees, granite cliffs and sparkling lakes that are synonymous with northern Ontario. Also a great spot to photograph wild life or spend time with nature. Some access areas to the park come with parking and facilities. Some areas charge for parking and overnight camping in designated areas serviced by the park has to be booked ahead of time. Still it the best deal around for nature lovers. Highly recommended.

Great for camping, or a day trip for those that enjoying paddling. Do be aware that you are in the bush and be prepared. Some of the portages are not easy, so take care and don't rush. It is a natural area, so if you expect it to be groomed to make it easier, just stay home. Speaking of portages, remember you aren't the only ones using them so be a good back-country camper and don't block them with your gear and canoe/kayaks.

We visited just after Labour Day weekend in 2018, entering through Anstruther Lake.

I’ve been here multiple times in the past and Anstruther Lake forever seems to be windy. This time especially so, to the point that I as a fairly experienced (but by no means expert) paddler struggled and almost turned us around.

It’s hard to visit a paddle-in park in Ontario and not compare it to Algonquin.

As compared to Algonquin:
• The trip in isn’t as quiet as Anstruther has a fair amount of boat traffic, particularly during the summer;
• The portages felt a lot easier because they’re pretty beaten down and short;
• The campsites on Rathburn and North Rathburn are close enough to lakes where you can hear a float plane; and
• The campsites themselves are comparatively less rugged as they have picnic benches.

If you take all of that for what it is though, it’s a completely acceptable park to camp at. In fact with kids it’s probably much easier.

The portage between Loucks and Compass has a very high beaver dam and then rocks, then was very shallow even with the recent rain. The portage between Compass and Stoplog is very steep and there are trees that need to be removed to make it safer to carry a canoe. Once we got to our site we at least had a reward for the hard work. There are other campsites on Stoplog but you can't see any of them from the site and the swimming is wonderful with a narrow channel which you can swim across.

We parked at the Wolf Lake put-in, paddled about 4km to a 140m portage, then were on Crab Lake. Irregular shoreline, finger bays, rock outcrops and no power boats. Loved the silence and seclusion. Fishing was good too.

This is a gorgeous park with excellent backcountry camping opportunities. We just got back from 5 days on Stoplog Lake

To get to our site we went Long > Loucks > Compass > Stoplog. The portage from Loucks to Compass was brutal. The water level is so low due to lack of rain and tons of beaver dams that it's basically knee deep muck or a rock garden that you have to wade through and do constant liftovers in. There was no way we could return that way due to the beaver dams - we'd have to be doing 4 foot high liftovers every 100 feet in knee-deep mud.

To go back we did Stoplog > Mountain > Buzzard > Long. The portage from Stoplog into Mountain was gruelling - lots of steep and rocky uphill and downhill for almost 700 meters. The other two portages were much easier though.

Site 560 is stunning. It has to be one of the most beautiful and most private sites in the park.

We were scheduled for a trip on the French river but we had to reschedule our trip last minute because of the bad fires up there.
We did 3 days. We started at the Long lake access point and camped our first night on Loucks. There is boat traffice and a number of cottages on Loucks but the site was very nice. You felt like you were in the wilderness. Good swimming and fishing as well.
Our second day we portaged to Buzzard lake and it was much quieter with minimal cottages and boats. All in all an enjoyable trip.

For a visitor without a canoe, there is not as much reason to visit Kawartha Highlands Provincial Park, as there are no facilities set up for visitors in cars or on foot. We knew this about the park, but still as we drove by on a Sunday afternoon in October, we thought we might shoot in to watch the sunset on Long Lake, as it is only 2 km from the main highway. For a one minute detour, the view was amazing, and definitely worth taking the short time to get there. Visitors passing by car should be more aware of what they are missing just off the road.

My husband has been backcountry camping for years, with friends and more recently our teenage son. He has wanted me to go for years, but I always thought of myself as more of a 5 star resort gal. Well, last year I decided to give it a go (I've been finding in my old age...I'm 45....that I am more and more at home in the peace and quite of nature). Since this park is close to home and my husband and son had taken a trip early last year and enjoyed it, I agreed. We decided to stay on Copper lake (They had stayed on Anderson so my husband felt sure I could handle the route to Copper). We launched on Anstruther lake at the Access point and it was a few hours of paddling and 3 portages to reach our site #236. FYI, Anstruther is a bigger lake and going in was very rough, but much calmer the day we came out. Absolutely beautiful spot, clean water for swimming, we both caught good sized fish that made a great meal one night. We also went back this summer for a day trip to Wolf lake (it does have a few cottages on it and some boat traffic, but still made for a nice canoe day trip, picnic lunch and swim on an island.
