View topic - Hillsborough River

This seems like the easy part of my journey but thats just when bad things happen.....taking things for granted.
So ...anyone out there know how easy it is to access a put in on the Hillsborough RIver for a short run to Charlottetown?
I'm hoping its easy as pie...but I've never been so....help if you know.
Thanks
Dan

We paddled the river from Mt. Stewart thru to Ch'town a couple of years ago,

The post is my data on the trip. There are several side roads off Route 2 that are marked hillsborough heritage river, and those roads probably lead you to the banks. Mt. Stewart is the obvious entry point to make for a 3/4 day or half day paddling experience. See my GPS map.

Thanks anyway
Did the Mount Stewart to almost the city in 2004 as the 8th leg of my 10 rivers, 10 provinces, 10 days journey across Canada.
It was one of the nicest days of the expedition as there was so much extra time for sightseeing and drinking due to the short distances between N.B. and P.E.I. and N.S.

Yea, I just discovered the site today, and have been posting replies without looking at the dates they were posted. I guess others can still benifit.

That sounds like quite the trip you did. Good on ya! What's next?
