2026 marks the 13th Season of Algonquin Outfitters Muskoka River X. Considered by some the most demanding single-day paddling race in the world, River X embodies the fundamentals of Adventure Racing, Paddle Sports, and Back-Country Tripping.

On September 12, 2026, starting at dawn on the shore of an undisclosed lake, teams will paddle into the heart of Algonquin Park. They will finish at an undisclosed location along the Highway 60 Corridor. True to Adventure Racing, no other aspect of the route will not be revealed until race weekend. Only then will Teams decipher the hidden route using the provided course instructions and topographic maps. Paddling and navigating their way through a maze of lakes, rivers, marshes and portages, under the setting sun, they will find their way home.

All teams must complete the MAIN COURSE.  The Main Course is estimated to be 60km +/- in distance

Course details available at on-site registration, September 11, 2026.
