Boston Kayaker

Kayaking on Lake Nominingue - in Nominingue, Québec Rating: One Star - I got spoiled with the pristing lakes inside Parc national du Mont-Tremblant that I have been paddling in the last few days. Lac Nominingue is big and the day we paddled, very windy and choppy. Waves have been splashing into our tandem kayak (we have no spray skirts) and the water becoming choppy. About a mile into our paddle, we turned around as we are both wet and the wind seem will not stop.   Put in at Chemin des Pommiers   in Nominingue, Québec. Paddle around Lake Nominingue   and return. Estimated round trip   distance = 8 miles Public   beach   "Nominingue" from Algonquin for   "a place one must return". Le P'tit Train du Nord   Bike Trail     Disclaimer: It is your responsibility to determine the legality, suitability and safety of this route for yourself.
