#riviererouge

One of the highlights of paddling the Rivière Rouge are these sandy beaches along the way. Our chosen day was overcast and drizzly, not great for swimming. In the future a paddle down this river on a hot summer day would be divine.

The outfitters offer shuttles and rentals so you can start upstream and end downstream and get a ride back to your car. Which is ideal. This service is great for a group.

Paddling on our own with one car would be harder. We’d have to arrange and shuttle back to our car. Maybe in a non-pandemic year.#riviererouge #laurentides

Family canoe day on the Rivière Rouge

Rented canoes at Kayak & Cabana and did a 12 km paddle on the Rivière Rouge with my whole family - brother & family, my parents and our family.

The Rivière Rouge is a very popular destination for leisurely paddling with several outfitters.

The pandemic-restrictions limited our options or I would have chosen a longer route. Paddling is super easy, going downstream.#laurentides #riviererouge
