Dumoine River Paddling Trail | Whitewater Canoeing

The mythical Dumoine River is a natural jewel of Abitibi-Témiscamingue at the end of a unique paddling network with multiple trails possibilities.

With its narrow canyons, its meanders, its excellent combination of lakes and rivers in the hollow of the hills, its many perfectly distributed class 1 to 3 paddleable rapids, the clarity of its water which gives this impression so obvious of purity, a few portages in a path to stretch your legs and vary your memories and its splendid campsites on pine needles, the Dumoine is the mecca of rivers in Canada. No wonder she was a favorite of Bill Masson, long considered Canada's greatest boater. This river offers you a fabulous descent in a wild nature.

Of an average width preserved in length and scrolling through a rugged relief, the Dumoine enjoys a wide range of landscapes with a thousand beauties composed of gigantic white and red pines, vertiginous falls, turbid waterfalls, fish-filled lakes, marshy sections, sandy and rocky shores and large cliffs. An isolated, untouched and intoxicating universe buzzing with fauna and flora to discover.
