After all nothing is certain in the wild, even if taking a break in Madawaska or other to regroup and continue on after a few days rest, Im retired so lots of time and energy to do it when the weather permits of course, so knowing this its a wonderful opertunety to visit , enjoy and take in Algonquin at its best .

About 15 years ago my boss for my summer job was fondly remembering his month+ trip with his friend hiking and camping along the logging roads in Algonquin Park. I was just an "Algonquin Novice" back then but now I wish I had quizzed him on that subject because it sounds like the kind of experience that few people have in the park.
Well my friend that's the ideal, unusual and different view then what you'd see trail wise.

Hike? Like across the highway?
well even thou highway 60 must be a sight to see id rather stay away from asphalt myself since I see it everyday.
If you use google maps and google earth you can easily see the major logging roads crossing the park north of Highway 60, Never researched in south side but I was concentrating my efforts in the north.

At this point all planning is mental, Im just trying to see if anyone would or could do this trek, looking now more after Labour day week end.
I appreciate your advice, its not absolutely necessary I stay or only use logging roads but it would speed up the walking thru the interior and get to see more visually then if I use the common trails.
I would use your advice as per the park authorities releasing a permits under my circumstances.
any other advice or comments are appreciated.
planning on no more then 2-3 weeks at the most but again not necessary to cross the entire park.
The point of this trek is to enjoy time away from the big city and connect with nature.

It sounds like the same roads that cross the park. It would be a awesome end of summer trek if i could find the right companion to do it with this summer.

Well theres this logging trails north of hwy 60. That crosses East to West.
Seen it on maps and crossed it on one of my hikes 20+ years ago and always wanted to explore it ever since.
