Entrance to Lemieux Island - Unofficial boat launch

Ottawa River - West of Nepean Bay

Gatineau, Ontario, Canada

Right before the first bridge on the way to Lemieux Island, there is an old falling down building and a dirt laneway leading down to the water. Many people put their canoes and kayaks in here. It has a nice beach sand bottom with scattered large rocks. There are bushes overhanging the shore and a beautiful view of the Prince of Wales bridge.
