Ride, Raft, Relax: Wilderness Tours Is Ontario's All-Inclusive Multi-Sport Resort
When you think of a true mountain bike getaway, Whistler or Quebec might spring to mind—places where the trails are legendary and the accommodations are designed for riders who stay, not just play. But did you know Ontario has its own all-inclusive adventure resort built around rafting and mountain biking?
Welcome to Wilderness Tours Adventure Resort, a hidden gem in Foresters Falls that combines world-class whitewater, purpose-built MTB trails, and a stay-and-explore setup that makes weekend planning a no-brainer.
From Whitewater to Singletrack
Wilderness Tours has been guiding whitewater rafting trips down the Ottawa River since 1975. But three years ago, they began carving purpose-built MTB flow trails into the surrounding 5,500-acre property. With 87 meters of vertical drop and connections to the Beachburg Off-Road Cycling Association (BORCA) network, the result is a ride experience that blends bike park-style descents with epic XC loops.
“It really is a mountain biker’s paradise—and we’re just getting started,” says Matt McGuire, head of awesome at Wilderness.
Everything You Need, All in One Place
“With everything on-site—resort, river, trails—we’re in a truly unique setting for Ontario, maybe even Eastern Canada,” says Matt. “Think of us as the Sandals of whitewater. It’s all-inclusive: food, lodging, activities, entertainment.”

-
Cabins and cottages

Riverside rental homes
