The Ottawa River Voyageur Experience is one of our most popular experiences. Rocky headlands, majestic cliffs, miles of sandy beaches and towering pine forests make this a trip of a lifetime. We follow the route of the voyageurs and see the wilderness much like it was two centuries ago. We take our time to explore the land as well, hiking deep into forests and along the beach before the group can relax around a crackling fire when the day is done. Choose from either a 2-Day or 5-Day package, or Contact Us for a custom offering to accommodate any schedule!
2-Day Ottawa River Voyageur:
Following traditional voyageur routes, we explore the Upper Ottawa River and all of its glory. Hike to the top of spectacular Oiseau Rock – a 500′ half-dome mountain- for a breath-taking view and refreshing swim in a mountain lake. Explore the forests, cliffs, and wilderness in the area before relaxing at camp for the evening.
5-Day Ottawa River Voyageur:
Extend our two-day Upper Ottawa River initiation to a full five days of deep immersion in spectacular wilderness, scenery and the Voyageur life. This epic experience will see you baptized as a full Voyageur, just as the original novice Voyageurs were, at the beautiful Pointe aux Baptize.
