Otonabee River at Champlain College (TrentU)

Otonabee River

Peterborough, Ontario, Canada

Located on Trent University campus, accessible via the Faryon bridge. Just north of the bridge in front of Champlain College. To access from the Bata Library podium, walk up the steps and head left toward Champlain College. Walk down the steps leading to the Champlain courtyard; site will be approximately 100m from the courtyard where the concrete steps lead to the river water. Site is accessible all year round. In this location, the water can be seen flowing steadily. Because this is a deep water location, it is a popular swimming and angling spot on-campus.
