The Restigouche River Islands candidate conserved area is about 9 km away, with Gorden Creek (about 11 km) and Christopher Brook (about 14 km) candidate conserved areas further up the watershed; Goulette Brook protected natural area is about 17.5 km.
Sugarloaf Provincial Park Campground, at the base of Sugarloaf Mountain, is about 3 km from downtown and the closest option; it's a popular base for both hiking and the Restigouche's salmon fishing.
It's one of the Maritimes' premier Atlantic salmon rivers and the site of the 1760 Battle of the Restigouche, the last naval battle of New France — a valid New Brunswick fishing licence and salmon tag are required to fish it.
Regulations
A valid New Brunswick fishing licence plus a salmon tag are required to fish for Atlantic salmon on the Restigouche River. Sugarloaf Provincial Park requires a day-use fee and camping reservations in peak season; candidate conserved areas are typically low-impact zones without formal camping infrastructure.
