Bonnechere River is a small winding river perfectly suited for kayaking or canoeing. Besides some driftwood lining the bottom and fallen trees laying across the water, it is safe for a ride.
Click anywhere inside the frame above and drag it around to see more in this 360 degree video of canoeing on tranquil Bonnechere River outside of the Bonnechere Ontario Provincial park.
If you decide to go upstream, you may reach the rapids within one or two hours depending on your skills. If you go down the stream, the river will take you to the Round Lake. There is a lot of water surface to explore in both the river and the lake.
The route up the stream is marked with the blue line on the map above.
You might be interested in taking a day trip across the lake to the Foy Provincial Park (red line on the map). Read more on the rules of engagement in Foy Park here. The trip may be weather dependent. Please consider your safety first of all.

Have a safe and joyful ride!
