We are excited to announce the launch of the beta version of the new Ontario Trails Council website! Please take a moment to check out the updated version of this page. Grand River Water Trails

Grand River Water Trails


This webpage provides information on river access points on properties owned by the GRCA or river access points owned and/or maintained by our municipal partners.

Canoeing or kayaking between the source of the Grand and Elora can be difficult because of low flows and the many portages.

Suitability of river flows for paddling and paddling times depend on the experience and equipment of the paddler and the conditions at the time. If you are unsure about suitability, you may wish to use a local canoe outfitter.
