Renowned as Ontario's 'Trout Streams,' the Lady Evelyn River is a spectacular 100 km wilderness canoe route through rugged highlands featuring four arms and multiple waterfalls including the Golden Staircase and natural waterslides. This challenging route demands experienced portaging skills as paddlers navigate steep, slippery carries around dramatic cascades while passing through old-growth pine forests near Temagami's highest points. The river's twin branches allow for upstream-then-downstream loop variations; best paddled in spring for whitewater, though navigable all summer through to early fall.
The difficulty of Lady Evelyn River Route River varies by section.
The best time is May-September (spring for whitewater).
Lady Evelyn River Route River is located in the Northeastern Ontario region of Canada.
