About the Northern Forest Canoe Trail
The Northern Forest Canoe Trail is the longest inland paddling trail in the nation and runs from Old Forge, New York through Vermont, Québec, and New Hampshire to Fort Kent, Maine following ancient Native American travel routes. We protect and steward our 740-mile water trail and foster community vitality to promote inspiring outdoor experiences in the Northern Forest Region. In 2014 the Northern Forest Canoe Trail was named “Editor’s Choice–Best Canoeing” by Yankee Magazine.
