There are two trailheads to chose from, one in each end, so if you can get a ride from someone, you can backcountry trek it just one way. Now, this is roughly a 1.5-day hike, so it's a nice thing if your backpack is big enough to do the job. This is a hiking trail that is quite long, so do pack enough food to last the whole trip. This hiking trail sometimes gets very dry, so do check for current fire restrictions before you go if you plan to bring a stove or make a camp fire. Algonquin Trail goes through some very different elevations, so keep in mind that you may need to dress differently at different elevations. The total elevation difference for Algonquin Trail is 2,168 feet which is about average. Being 11 miles long; it's longer than many backpacking and hiking trails.
