Guskewau Lake Camp
Guskewau Lake Camp
Guskewau Lake Camp is a backcountry campsite on Guskewau Lake within Algonquin Provincial Park, accessed via the Western Uplands Trail. Hiking counterclockwise from the trailhead, the site sits approximately 4. 4 km in, on the southwest shore of the lake.
It is the second of only two bookable sites on the lake, with the first positioned on a hill above it. The site offers ample flat space for multiple tents and sits directly on the water's edge.
The lake is noted for its clear, clean water, sandy and rocky bottom, and gradual entry suitable for swimming. Guskewau Lake is widely regarded as one of the most scenic stops on the Western Uplands Trail, characterized by rolling hills and open water.
Hikers continuing on the trail follow Guskewau Creek downstream toward the trailhead.
