Hailed as one of the most remarkable recoveries of Atlantic Salmon stocks in Eastern North America, this world class river offers thrilling adventures and remarkable scenery.
Located 18 km west of Gander at Glenwood, the main stem flows 35 miles through the wilderness east to the scenic communities of Gander Bay. All of the main stem is accessible mainly by a 25 foot powered river boat, a craft engineered and built to power its way up through the chutes and rapids of the mighty river - a boat ride you will never forget! Highly skilled guides, including aboriginal guides, are readily available to get you to the best spots.
For the individual or family adventurer, a Gander River excursion delivers a thrilling ride, spectacular scenery and a chance to view wildlife (including regular sightings of ospreys and bald eagles). All of these combined make for vacation highlights that won’t soon be forgotten.
