Trail Description
Trail # 3; length: 3,5 km, linear, considered as an easy trail for beginners in summertime
and difficult in winter.
Year round, why not take a quiet stroll for a few hours and be seduced by the
splendor and vistas nature has to offer. The small majestic islands are more
than the eye can meet. All along, you will discover many ecosystems and
different habitats.
Depending on the time or number of vehicles available, it is possible to
leave a vehicle at the end of the trail whether your starting point is from
the North or South trailhead. You can walk the trail in 2.5 hours.
For further information:
The rivière des Quinze (15 rapids) is in fact the “Outaouais” river which means
“trading”, in Algonquin. The trail could be written two ways : ADAWE or
ATTAWAY meaning “sell” in Algonquin.
