Directions


The CANOE10 main event site is at the Paddler Co-op Boathouse, three kilometres north of the town of Palmer Rapids, Ontario.

The town of Palmer Rapids is located three hours from Toronto and two hours from Ottawa. Either buy a road map and drive to Palmer Rapids or visit MapQuest or Google Maps. Then once you have an idea of where you're going use the directions below.

Please drive safely, it’s more dangerous than paddling.

From the south: If you’ll be arriving in Palmer Rapids via Hwy28/Hwy 514 from the south, turn left onto Palmer Rd/Hwy 515 and drive through the town of Palmer Rapids. Approx. two kilometres north of town you’ll cross over the Madawaska River; stay on Palmer Rd/Hwy 515 for one more kilometre. The Paddler Co-op Boathouse is tucked into white pine trees on the left.

From the north: If you are coming via Hwy 62, at Combermere turn south onto Palmer Rd/Hwy 515 towards Palmer Rapids. The Paddler Co-op Boathouse is on the right, just past Dam Road. If you cross the Madawaska River Bridge, you have gone one kilometre too far. There will be plenty of signs.
