Your adventure will being today as you board your float plane and soar above the sub-Arctic landscape as you travel to Blachford Lake Lodge. 

Over the next few days days go fishing for whitefish, pike, and trout; kayak or canoe Blachford Lake at sunset; take a hike among the fall colours; listen to the loons call as you sit by our outdoor fire; warm up in the sauna after a refreshing dip in the lake; dine on your own catch of the day, masterfully prepared by our Chef; watch the northern lights dance across the sky – their reflection in the still lake an illusion of endless sky.
