Northern Ontario offers some of the most rugged landscape in Canada.  The Canadian Shield is the oldest mountain range in North America and the best way to explore it is by helicopter!  All four seasons are equally beautiful in the area north of Lake Superior.  Helicopters are a very versatile mode of transportation.

Lake Superior Picnic Lunch  - On the mouth of the Dog River.  Approximately 20 miles west of Wawa is the beautiful and rugged Dog River.  We will land on the beach, enjoy a picnic lunch and take a hike up the river to Denison Falls.  This spectacular waterfall flows through a narrow chute carved from bedrock before plunging 300 feet down to the rocks below.

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION


Wawa is right in the middle of 3 large Northern Ontario Parks.  To the northwest is Pukaskwa National Park, to the south is Lake Superior Provincial Park and to the east is Missinaibi Lake Provincial Park.  All three feature a pristine wilderness setting.  While Air Regulations prohibit landing tourists into the parks, we can get you within walking distance of some very remote campsites.
