Five Finger Rapids is the most popular destination from the Lodge at Pine Cove. Located on land owned by the Dokis First Nation, it is a lovely spot where rapids meet pristine ponds and jump-from cliffs complement a walking trail.

You can swim, dive, picnic, read a book or simply breathe the fresh air. This magnificent spot will not disappoint. Your adventure begins as you board our Water Taxi at the main dock. During the 20-minute trip to Five Finger Rapids, we’ll entertain you with a brief introduction to the French River’s history of First Nations and fur traders. We will provide you with a gourmet picnic lunch prepared by the Lodge’s chef. You have several menus to choose from. Once at Five Finger Rapids, you are on your own. You can make the short journey to the first set of rapids, drop off your lunch and begin to explore. Hike the trails, play in the rapids, swim in the pristine waters, jump from the small cliffs, visit the Little French River, read a book or lounge at your leisure. (Before diving from cliffs, always check water depths by swimming first.)
