The Allagash Wilderness Waterway is a remote, wild, and historic waterway and one of America's premier canoe trips. From the summit of Mt. Katahdin, you see the Allagash Wilderness Waterway stretching northward as far as the eye can see. It is one of the last remaining wilderness frontiers on the Eastern Seaboard. Located in the North Woods of Maine, The Allagash Wilderness Waterway's 92-miles meander through protected lakes, ponds, and streams as you paddle the Allagash River, a class II whitewater river featuring 9 miles of class II rapids which include Chase Rapids.
Henry David Thoreau visited the Allagash River in 1857 guided by two natives of the Penobscot Tribe. He chronicled his journey in his book “The Maine Woods”.
We started our classic Allagash Canoe trip in Millinocket, Maine, traveling on the Golden Road to our put-in on Chamberlain Lake. We travelled from Chamberlain Lake to Eagle Lake to Churchill Lake, around the Chruchill Dam past Chase rapids. We paddled Umsaskis Lake, Long Lake, and Round Pond while on the Allagash River before our take-out in the Village of Allagash.
