Noire River Getaway

The Noire is a beautiful, Quebec whitewater river – flowing from its headwaters below La Vérendrye Wildlife Reserve, south to the Ottawa River near Pembroke. Less well-known and travelled than other rivers in the area, the Noire has the longest distance of runnable whitewater, the shortest distance that must be portaged, the best chance of seeing wildlife, and the smallest possibility of encountering other paddlers.

We meet at the take-out point and drive-by van over logging roads to the most exciting part of the river – a 75-km downstream run. With lots of Class I, II, and some optional Class III rapids, it is an opportunity to learn new skills with the help of your Black Feather guides.
