‘Paddle Like a Girl’ on the Spanish River

Adventure Overview

This trip is in partnership with Paddle Like A Girl.

The Spanish River flows 340km from two different sources, Biscotasi Lake forming the West branch, and Duke Lake forming the East branch. The branches join at “The Forks” and flow South into Lake Huron. The Spanish River has a rich natural and cultural history and is protected as a Provincial Park. Today it is mostly used by recreational paddlers.

Our trip begins with a night at Agnew Lake Lodge where we will make sure our gear is ready for the river trip.  An early morning shuttle to Sudbury for our train ride into Spanish River Provincial Park. We disembark the train at the “Forks” stop and begin our journey down river. Our guides will spend time on whitewater instruction to prepare everyone for the upcoming 6 days of fun whitewater paddling covering over 103km.  Paddling right back to Agnew Lake Lodge where we will say our goodbyes.

This trip is perfect for those looking to challenge themselves with whitewater paddling, and get away from their busy everyday lives to experience nature. Enjoy paddling and swimming in dark blue waters, fishing, classic Canadian Shield wilderness, and even try to spot a moose as you paddle down the beautiful Spanish River.

We acknowledge that the Spanish River flows through the traditional territories of the Anishinabek and Mississauga Nations and is recognized under Robinson-Huron (Treaty 61, 1850) Treaties.  We recognize that we are visitors to this land.
