Muskoka River X

Muskoka River X Since 2013 River X Racing has been Rob Horton and Mike Varieur with the ongoing support of Algonquin Outfitters. See http://muskokariverx.com/ for details.

River X is a passion for ultra-distance marathon paddling + adventure. The flag-ship event is the Muskoka River X; the longest single day expedition paddling race in the world. In 2015, the Muskoka River X expanded by adding a traverse of Algonquin Park to the Classic event, and the Coureur des Bois was born. Since then River X has hosted several ultra-distance marathon paddling events including the Big East River X, 24 Hours of River X, The OX, Battle of the Paddle, Huntsville 110 and the David Thompson Virtual Paddle Challenge.

Bill’s legacy can be found throughout our paddling community today. Gratitude to the employee-owners at NRS for your continued support the MRX. Available at Algonquin Outfitters
