 The
Bonnechere River travels 145 km from its source in Algonquin Park to the
Ottawa River at Castleford. The Bonnechere River, while the smallest of
the major tributaries of the Ottawa River, drains an area half the size
of Prince Edward Island. This watershed provides productive farmland,
substantial forests, and breathtaking landscape along its course. The
river has many calm stretches, with intermittent rapids and waterfalls.
Log drivers built chutes around these obstacles, and later dams were built
to produce hydro-electricity. |
