If you haven't been - go!!!! The fall was hands down the prettiest of all the places we've travelled to in Ontario. Also, for a fully packed park, we could barely hear a peep from any of other campers.

Beautiful park! George lake is stunning! We rented our canoe through Killarney Outfitters. It sucked to have to leave the park to rent it and then come back in. But the canoes were super light and sturdy! The signs to find things around the park are super confusing, especially at night when you need to use the bathroom, the one close to your site is pad locked and you have to drive around to find one. That was not so fun! They only have 1 comfort station for a lot of sites. For a good way to improve the park I'd add another comfort station and fix up the signs. There needs to be a sign to show where sites 1-6 are because we drove in circles to find it. I'd also make some electric campsites for people with trailers that would like to stay longer then a couple nights. Otherwise, we really enjoyed our short stay here. Lots to do and enjoy! Sites are large and semi private. Site 6

Beautiful stunning park with serene lakes and unique rocky lake formations. Hot showers, very clean. HOWEVER, please be prepared for A LOT of mosquitoes if coming in June/July. Every single person in our group got 15+ large swelling mosquito bites, and even bug spray DID NOT help. Otherwise when there’s fewer bugs, this is a definite 5 star.

A fantastic winter park! We hiked the crack, as well as took a couple of of the cross country ski trails and had a wonderful day! The crack was not concerning to hike during the winter, there were no real concerns of slipping, and the cool weather still had a sweating by the time we got to the top! The cross country ski trails were excellent for beginners, as this was my first time cross country skiing. I felt totally comfortable and safe!

This was our first time hiking in Killarney Provincial Park. We hiked the Crack trail and Granite Ridge. Unfortunately, it rained for most of our hike on the Crack trail, but it was still awesome. It was rugged/rocky and very slippery because of the rain. The most challenging part of the trail was climbing up the rocks to get to the top and then climbing back down. Please be very careful. Otherwise, it still made for an exhilarating hike. The next day, we took on Granite Ridge. One of the more easier hikes. We completed the trail in less than an hour. Depends on how quickly you walk. Beautiful again, lovely scenery. The trail markers on this trail got a bit confusing after we got to the top. The trail is a loop, so you can follow the first trail marker you see coming back down. It'll lead you to number 11. We are looking forward to completing the rest of the trails. P.S. If you're looking for a place to stay close to Killarney, I recommend Sudbury and then driving up to Killarney as it is more affordable and only an hour and a bit away.

One of the most beautiful parks in Ontario. We visited here for the first time July 2021. Lots of activities to do - Nice trails, Lakes and red granite. We did 1. The Crack trail - 8kM. Initial part of hike is scenic and easy to climb. However the last stretch is difficult. There are lots of steep boulders and rocks towards the end. But the view is breathtaking and worth the hike!!! 2. Cranberry Bog Trail - Cranberry Bog trail is a loop trail which is about 4km. We could hear the birds singing along the way. Views on the trail are beautiful and includes water lilies, red granite rocks, lakes. Overall Really great Hiking and rock climbing trail. 3. Bell Lake - It is really peaceful and serene here. Very few people were at the lake. Highly recommend!

Stayed two nights in a yurt in December. Bigger than expected and nicely heated. We stayed with our 6 month old in a bassinet in a fleece onesie and had a great time. We booked the yurt that allowed dogs and our cavalier loved it too. Very warm. Only downsides were (1) heater was very noisy and woke me and baby up in the night. (2) 500 m by sled was fun in the day but not so much when we left in the dark. Overall a great stay!

This place is truly magical. Every Canadian should experience it at least once. Incredible mountain lakes and trails. Beautiful marble and quartz boulders reflect sunshine in the waters. Town and outfitters close by. Great location and accessibility, good parking and camping sites. Great trails. A piece of heaven on earth.

Nice park, but definitely some other parks are more attractive. Has quite few trail. But you have to drive off the highway for almost 45 minutes one way

Absolutely stunning! We did a day trip to the back country and that was amazing. Our camping at this park has been the best out of all the parks we have stayed at.
