Opeongo River Provincial Park is a waterway park in Nipissing District in northeastern Ontario, Canada.[1] It incorporates those portions of the Opeongo River from its exit from Algonquin Provincial Park to the river's mouth at the Madawaska River, except for a small portion around Victoria Lake. The park has two access points: from Ontario Highway 60 west of the community of Madawaska; and the Shall Lake access point, north of Victoria Lake, in Algonquin Provincial Park.
As a non-operating park, there are no facilities or services. The park can be used for recreational activities such as canoeing, hiking, swimming, and hunting.[2]
