Welcome to the
Friends of LaVase Portages
Our Goal is to have the Heritage and Historical Importance of the LaVase Portages Route
Recognized and Protected
for Future Generations
Formally established in 2006
-
to promote the protection of a useable portage from Trout Lake to Lake Nipissing that will reasonably reproduce the Voyageur experience.
-
To advocate for the protection of the land and waterways associated with the portages and trails.
-
To provide trails for multiple season non-motorized use and such other complimentary purposes not inconsistent with these objectives.

This Just in!!
Back in July 2026, Two of our board members

Had the priveledge of Guiding New Zealand YouTube Adventurer
Tom Hudson of What in The World
