Churchill River Canoe Outfitters | Fond du Lac Canoe Expedition

Fond du Lac River, Waterfound River

Jul 16, 2025 to Jul 29, 2025

The Fond-du-Lac Canoe Expedition ​from Churchill River Canoe Outfitters (CRCO) is a 14-day intermediate level trip that shows off the Fond-du-Lac River - one of northeast Saskatchewan's most incredible paddling gems. New for 2025, CRCO have added a short section of the Waterfound River to their Fond-du-Lac Expedition. The Waterfound River is full of shallow boulder-strewn and grayling-filled rapids that will get you primed for the bigger whitewater to come on the Fond-du-Lac. The Fond-du-Lac River is a clear, wild waterway that rushes 270 km northwest from its headwaters on Wollaston Lake to Lake Athabasca, boasting picturesque waterfalls -including Manitou Falls - and Class I and Class II whitewater rapids to keep you on your toes. It is unique in the Canadian Shield as it flows through picturesque limestone canyons - the array of looming limestone cliffs, rolling eskers, and sparse jackpine forest that makes this terrain some of the best camping country in the world. Bald eagles, black bear, moose and possibly caribou can all be seen along the river. The trip includes shuttle transport from Points North Landing to the Waterfound River, expert guides, meals and snacks during the journey, all canoeing, safety, rescue & cooking equipment, and charter flight transport from the Fond-du-Lac River to Stony Rapids at the end of the trip. Starting at rate is per person.
