点评:This beautiful spot is only 19 kilometers (19 mi) east of Timmins. Great spot for our last day before an early am flight.
The numerous kettle lakes are the result of an enormous glacier at the end of the last Ice Age. Twenty of the 22 lakes in Kettle Lakes Provincial Park are kettles. There are lakes for swimming lakes for fishing and if you enjoy solitude you can find one all to yourself.
"The lakes are surrounded by forests made up primarily of jack pine interspersed with balsam fir, red and white pine, and white and black spruce. Stands of deciduous trees such as trembling aspen and white birch may also be found in the park."
The hiking trails are good for photography but the park is popular in summer so its harder than expected to spot wildlife. Some of the roads are rough so make sure you bring a 4x4 or at least a high clearance vehicle. Sorry this is not a KOA Campground in California, this is a wilderness hundreds of miles north of Toronto. There is an admission fee so don't drive past the gate on your way in. Souvenirs are available as well as sweatshirts if you didn't come prepared.
翻译:这个美丽的地方位于蒂米斯以东仅19公里处。对于清晨有航班要乘坐的我们来说,这里是最后一天的理想去处。
众多锅穴湖的形成要归功于上一个冰河时期留下的巨大冰川。在凯特尔湖省立公园的22个湖泊中,有20个都属于锅穴湖。这里有适合游泳的湖,也有适合垂钓的湖;如果你喜欢独处,还能找到只属于你一个人的宁静湖泊。
“这些湖泊四周环绕着森林,主要由火炬松构成,其间还夹杂着香脂冷杉。”红松与白松,还有白云杉和黑云杉。公园里也能见到白杨和白桦等落叶树丛。
这里的徒步路线很适合摄影,不过夏季游客众多,因此要观察到野生动物比预想的要困难。部分道路较为崎岖,务必驾驶四驱车或离地间隙较高的车辆前往。请注意:这里并非加州的KOA露营地,而是一片位于多伦多以北数百英里处的荒野地带。需要购买入场券,所以进园时请勿驾车直接穿过大门。如果您没有事先准备,这里也出售纪念品和卫衣。
