Nipigon River Recreational Trail

From the Town of Nipigon:

Experience the shoreline of the Nipigon River from Nipigon to Red Rock and along Nipigon Bay on Lake Superior, the world’s largest freshwater lake. Suitable for ages 8 and up (depending on abilities) this is an 8.2 km, well maintained, rugged trail that can take 3 to 5 hours to complete.

If you don’t have that much time, consider taking a 20-minute hike starting at the Red Rock trailhead to the viewing platform at Lloyd’s Lookout, and a few minutes past that, relax in the Parks Canada red chairs. Or, start at the Nipigon Marina trailhead and hike 2-3 kms of flat terrain along the edge of the Nipigon River. If you plan on doing the whole trail, starting at the Red Rock Trailhead is recommended.
