About New Brunswick’s Restigouche River

The oversized rate stamp features a photograph of the Restigouche River in New Brunswick by Canadian photographer Guylaine Bégin.

The Restigouche River in northern New Brunswick flows northeast for 200 kilometres from its source in the Appalachian Mountains to Chaleur Bay, an arm of the Gulf of St. Lawrence.

The Upper Restigouche is included in the Canadian Heritage River System, in part for its history as a Mi’kmaq waterway, its habitat for bald eagles, moose and lynx, and its canoeing and kayaking appeal.

The scenic river is also world renowned for its tranquil beauty and Atlantic salmon fishing, which attracts anglers from all over the world.
