Lake Travers is a remote eastern access point at Algonquin's far eastern boundary, primarily serving as pickup point for paddlers descending the challenging Petawawa River from Cedar Lake. This advanced-level route features the river's most thrilling class II-IV whitewater sections requiring expert paddling skills and extensive scouting. Scenery is spectacular with dramatic river gorges, historic logging sites, and excellent fishing opportunities along the way. Late spring through early fall offers best conditions, though high water in June can intensify difficulty. Access is extremely remote, making this a destination for experienced wilderness paddlers.
Access 19 (Achray) River is estimated at Advanced. Whitewater ratings are not exact: grades change with water level and season. Verify current conditions locally before you paddle.
The best time is May-September.
Access 19 (Achray) River is located in the Algonquin Provincial Park region of Canada.
