Kiosk, Ontario

Kiosk is a former community on Kioshkokwi Lake in northern Algonquin Park. Kiosk is located in Nipissing District in northeastern Ontario.

The name "Kiosk" is an abbreviated form of the lake's name, which means "lake of gulls". Kiosk was a station on the Canadian National Railway. Up until a fire in July 1973, a lumber company operated here. However, new regulations in the park area prohibited its rebuilding.

The community was demolished in the 1980s and it is now no more than a recreational area in Algonquin Park.
