Take your time to visit the
Thunder Bay International Hostel in Shuniah on the outskirts of Thunder Bay! You
won't regret exploring the banks of the MacKenzie River or swim under
the MacKenzie Falls or cliff-dive off Silver Harbour in the heart of the
Canadian Shield. There are paths through the pine spruce and poplar
forest across from the hostel for hikes to the lake or river. You can
go amethyst hunting near the newly renovated 11-17 Highway, or travel
into nearby Thunder Bay to visit Mount Mackay, Marina Park, or Fort
William Historical Park. Guests at the hostel often have guitars and
enjoy the crackling sound and heat from a large bonfire. Lloyd the
friendly host of the hostel is happy to give people tours of the local
'dump' in hopes of seeing bears (or happening upon discarded 'treasures'
with which to make interesting art).
The price is right at $25/night and the place is a real paradise. A
shared kitchen is available as is a nice hot shower, a showcase of
movies to choose from, and of course WIFI in the office space.
Call 807-983-2042 to book your nights, summer or winter, or email
info@thunderbayhostel.com.
