Crown Land in the Thousand Islands
The Thousand Islands are the 1,800-plus granite islands scattered where Lake Ontario empties into the St. Lawrence between Kingston and Brockville — castle-topped, pine-tufted knobs of the Frontenac Arch, the ancient ridge that links the Canadian Shield to the Adirondacks. From the anchor at Gananoque, the Gananoque River meets the big water in town, the Gananoque Provincial Wildlife Area sits 4 km out, and Thousand Islands National Park scatters its island campsites along the channel. Real crown land is scarce this far south — the nearest Shield-country public land is Charleston Lake Provincial Park 25 km inland, then Frontenac Provincial Park at 37 km, before genuine crown blocks begin toward the Land O' Lakes further north. This page rounds up the region's public land, fishing spots, campgrounds and road trips.
