Magnificent Hill Hostel, Highland Grove Ontario!

Magificent Hill Hostel is a place for anyone desiring relaxation in a beautiful country setting, or who actively wants to get in touch with nature and themselves in an environmentally-friendly and sustainable farm setting. Magnificent Hill is located just 20 minutes outside of Algonquin Park. The closest Greyhound Bus stops at Bancroft Ontario. You may call from Bancroft for shuttle pickup.

Welcome to Algonquin Backpackers, an established hostel and B&B run by travellers, for travellers.

Relax and enjoy your stay in the comfort of our unique century-old frontier hotel. Leave the tourist rush behind and take a step back into Algonquin's history.

Located in the heart of the Algonquin Highlands, we're surrounded by lakes, forest and unspoiled scenery on the quiet side of Algonquin Park. But don't expect to see hordes of camera-toting sightseers or lines of buses and campervans. Our tiny Village of Maynooth is still very much 'off the beaten path'!

For our guests travelling without vehicles, we are conveniently located on a Greyhound bus route, and once you have arrived we offer all sorts of Algonquin daytrips and shuttles with options to hike, bike, horseback ride, kayak and canoe, or we can set you up for an overnight canoe trip or camping adventure. We guarantee good equipment and the best rental rates!
