This 7 km route is one of the most popular and awe-inspiring of the 1,600 km of established canoe routes in Algonquin Park. A one-way excursion is possible by to driving a vehicle to Brigham Access, then canoe downriver to a shuttle, available to the left at Squirrel Rapids.
Look out for Barn Swallows and Eastern Phoebes nesting on the canyon walls and rare relict plants of glacial times, such as the Encrusted Saxifrage and Fragrant Cliff Fern. The Canoe Routes of Algonquin Park map brochure, obtained at the Sand Lake Gate, is an essential aid to a successful trip.
