I live close to the Lower Mad and paddle it frequently. Please join me for a fun summer run down from Aumond’s Bay to Buck Bay. This section of river is one of the best novice to intermediate whitewater
day trips in southern Ontario. The river is pool and drop with good portage trails around all difficult rapids. I would suggest you make a weekend of it by camping at Paddler Co-Op or Jessup’s Campground,
and enjoy another day of paddling at Palmer Rapids.
Kayaks or whitewater canoes with flotation bags are required. Bring a lunch and we’ll enjoy a meal on the river.

Book as soon as possible. This is our season opener and a chance to recover our skills after a long winter. We will start at Chisholm’s Mill and finish at Latta in the morning, eat lunch in our vehicles and run Lost Channel in the afternoon. This is a good opportunity for new spring paddlers to introduce themselves and demonstrate their competence. The river is not particularly technical and we will only be about an hour from our cars. This trip is open to anyone who doesn’t mind swimming in ice-cold water. Tandem canoes must have a centre airbag. Wetsuits or drysuits are required. If winter is later and weather/water conditions are unsuitable, we will postpone the trip. Limit of six boats.

This will be a challenging whitewater run suitable for advanced-level paddlers with fully outfitted canoes (centre bags for tandem boats) and proper cold-weather attire. If the river isn’t open yet we could switch to the Moira. Limit five boats

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.
