Northeast Kingdom: Vermont/Quebec, Lake Memphremagog to Connecticut River (trail section 6): Paddlers will make their way across Lake Memphremagog (beginning in Québec) and follow the Clyde and Nulhegan Rivers to the Connecticut River (60 miles total). This is the Northeast Kingdom, a high, cold corner of Vermont whose granite hills remain sparsely settled. Watch for moose, imagine you're one of the rum runners who once used this crossing from Canada, investigate the remains of the old Clyde River Dam which was dismantled to restore salmon habitat, or simply soak in this native homeland of the Western Abenaki, which is now undergoing revitalization. The Waitsfield, Vermontbased nonprofit NORTHERN FOREST CANOE TRAIL organization began developing the Trail in 2000 to be a recreational resource for paddlers, as well as a means to celebrate the history and culture of the Northern Forest region and to provide an economic development driver for communities there.
