"Kap-Kig-Iwan Provincial Park is a pretty small park, with a relatively limited set of activities you can partake in. The park's website mentions 2 trails, but there are 3 - as well as several short walking trails to lookout points. The trails are not very long, but the one that follows the river is nice. Overall, it's a cute park in NE Ontario, known for its waterfalls."
"Great provincial campground. Easy pull through sites, though some have a severe slope. Comfort station washrooms are clean, but showers need repair and deep cleaning. The grounds are very well maintained. Lots of walking trails, the river and falls are great, good place for base camp to explore the area, some really great fishing in the lakes in the area."
"Someone please help this park! Kap-Kig-Iwan has some gorgeous scenic lookouts and some great hiking trails but the facilities and structures are falling apart. This park needs and is deserving of an infusion of money. This is a very small park and it feels like it gets over looked a lot. It is not even in the online reservation system on the Ontario Parks website."
