In this video I share my disappointments, my hidden gems and I&#8217;ll tell you my favourite park. If you ever dreamed of exploring Ontario&#8217;s Wild places &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=f3WJHWzHwow&amp;t=166s\">this video is for you<\/a>. All parks are less than 4 hours from Toronto and the GTA. And I did it all in Dodge Grand Caravan with no special build, no fancy RV, just a simple old mini van. All along Rue66.
