Rivière Main


Main River, Newfoundland
Out of the Long Range Mountains
Designated 2001

“Cross-draw!” “Brace!” “Draw hard!” “Baaackpaddle!” The Main River – one of the last wilderness rivers on “the Rock” – provides a heart-stopping roller coaster ride for canoeists. But it is more than rapids. Boreal forest, placid lakes, the slow waters of the Big Steady, moose, caribou, and Atlantic salmon – all await the hardy paddler.
