Hidden in Oxford County, the Upper Nith River meanders thru dense forests, covering sweeping valleys broken by towering bluffs & rare tall-grass prairies. Best in May /June & Oct.
The river ranges from calm & serene, to thrilling & challenging, with some great swifts & interesting bends. An unique river great for seasoned paddlers to refine their skills. Or for aspiring paddlers to learn from expert Paddle Canada Certified guides, who'll arm you with a collection of new skills. As you maneuver around river features, paddle calm pools, swift waters, and under wrought iron bridges, you'll feel you're rediscovering a forgotten land.
Mid-paddle enjoy a break on a stone beach with your guide who'll share historic tales, including epic First Nations battles plus an infamous American outlaw who hid out along the Nith in the 1800's. Our Guides are keen to show points of interest easily overlooked by the untrained eye, such as Otter dens & Osprey Ness..
