Called and known as the Nahanni of the East, it is one of the most beautiful wild rivers of North America. It flows south from Lake Opocopa near the Labrador border to the north shore of the Saint Lawrence River east of Sept-×les, Quebec. The town of Moisie is located at its mouth. The river is 410 km in length. The Moisie River is popular with experienced canoeists who have a taste for white water. The continued and almost uninterrupted impressive panoramas of mountains and cliffs make this an unforgettable canoe expedition.
