Named in 2011 as Americaâ€™s Best Canoe Trail by Outside Magazine and sometimes referred to as the â€œAppalachian Trail of the Waterways,â€ the Northern Forest Canoe Trail (NFCT) begins in the Adirondacks at its western terminus in Old Forge, New York, ending at the eastern terminus in Fort Kent, Maine. It traverses 22 rivers and streams, 58 lakes and ponds, passes through 45 towns and villages, and requires 64 portages, totaling 55 miles. The Northern Forest Canoe Trail Through-Paddlerâ€™s Companion documents navigating the Trail in its entiretyâ€”west to east from the perspective and unique needs of an expedition paddler or anyone looking for more detailed information while following the official NFCT maps.
