About

The Bras-du-Nord River offers a perfect family-friendly canoe experience through the Vallée Bras-du-Nord's spectacular canyon landscapes. This 17-kilometer route features just two Class I rapids and meandering sections through rugged mountains, with access to the stunning 150-meter Delaney Falls via a short hiking trail. The river flows past sandy beaches and through pristine wilderness, taking 4-6 hours to complete with shuttle service and equipment rentals available. The dramatic scenery combined with gentle rapids makes this an ideal introduction to Quebec's wilderness paddling from May through October.
