This ~13 mile route connects Schoodic Mountain to Tunk Mountain, via a small variety of trails within the Donnell Public Reserved Land system.

In excess of 3,700ft of vertical gain, it summits the following peaks: Schoodic (1080ft) Black (1094ft) Caribou (960ft) Catherine (962ft) Tunk (1140ft). The views of MDI, Atlantic Ocean, and surrounding lakes combined with boreal forests and wide views make the area well worth a visit. My hope is that this route allows a more comprehensive introduction to the area and its many attractions, along with the considerable challenge.

The Ottawa-Temiskaming Highland Trail (OTHT) is a rugged wilderness hiking trail that covers a transitional area of Boreal/Great Lakes St. Lawrence Region forest ranging from Latchford, Ontario in the north through to Thorne, Ontario in the south. It is reported to be100km in length, but the actual length is closer to 150km. Hikers/runners should be aware of this discrepancy for planning and safety purposes. Cell phone coverage is unavailable for most of the trail.
