Upper Madawaska River

Printer-friendly versionPrinter-friendly version

A day of whitewater excitement for advanced paddlers. The upper Madawaska is a fast-flowing pool-and-drop river with quiet stretches interspersed with some very serious rapids. All rapids can, and some must, be portaged. Wetsuits or drysuits, helmets, and fully outfitted whitewater boats with full flotation are a must. Limit six boats.

Note: Access road can be in poor condition, and not suitable for regular automobiles.
