canoeing route

Waterway for paddlers

A canoeing route is a designated path through waterways—rivers, lakes, or connected bodies of water—intended for canoe travel.

Routes typically link portages, campsites, and points of interest: We paddled the Boundary Waters canoeing route over five days.

Published guides describe difficulty, distances between portages, and notable features.
