  • Fundy Routes
    Fundy Region MAP ....................................................................................................Truro 1. La Plan che Rive r 2. Stew iack e Rive r 3. Rive r Heb 7 Route: No. 1 La Planche River Type: River Rating: easy Length: 30 kilometers round trip (18.5 miles) 2 days Portages: None Main bodies of water: La Planche River, Long Lake and Round Lake. Start: on the north side of the town of Amherst. Intermediate access: None Finish: Return by same route. This trip takes you up through a portion of the Tantramar Marshes. There is no white water and the current is not strong. There are no land marks that will be of any help and a number of side streams and ditches will make some navigational experience useful. The lower end of the river is tidal and the start should be made at high tide. The water levels are good except in extremely dry periods. On the north side of Long Lake you will pass the old abandoned ship railway that was built in the 1800’s to transport ships overland to the Northumberland Strait. The history of this can be found at Fort Beausejour on route 2 near Amherst. Fishing is good in certain areas and duck and muskrats are plentiful. There are not many good areas to camp along the river; but there are some good sites along the northeast shore of Long Lake. Detailed information: National Topographic Series Map No. 21H / 16E 8 Route: No. 2 Stewiacke River Type: River Rating: Moderate Length: 46 kilometers (28.7 miles) 2 days Portages: None Main bodies of water: Stewiacke River Start: Upper Stewiacke Intermediate access: at five locations.
