Sightseeing
Large waterfall that changes with the seasons - equally spectacular in each. A short paddle or boat ride from the dock enjoy great swimming, fishing, wildlife viewing and the powerful sounds of Ragged Falls!
Guests can also enjoy a lazy river ride using the inflatable tubes included, walk to Ragged Falls (less than 2km) and spend the afternoon floating back to your Riverside dock.
Ragged Falls is a famous picnic spot for travellers leaving or entering Algonquin Park. Go on week days to avoid crowds, or early morning and have the place to yourself.
