Southwest Miramichi River River

★★★☆☆ 3.0

About

A remote wilderness river in New Brunswick's interior highlands featuring moderate whitewater, scenic river valleys, and connection to the legendary Nepisiguit Mi'gmaq Trail heritage paddling route. The Southwest Miramichi offers quieter paddling than its popular northern cousin with good camping access and solid river character. Intermediate paddlers will find manageable rapids and beautiful boreal forest scenery. The river system is less crowded than many Maritime paddling destinations. Best paddled June-September when water levels are adequate. Access requires planning from central New Brunswick with shuttle logistics.
