Location
The Wa-sh-ow site is located at Hannah Bay, 10 km upstream from where the
Harricanaw River flows into the James Bay in Northern Ontario.
Visitors will be able to reach the Centre by a variety of travel modes,
each one providing an adventure in itself.
During summer months, guests may travel to Wa-sh-ow by paddling down
the Harricanaw, Kesagami or Katawagami Rivers, or by freighter canoe
from Moose Factory located 75 km to the west, a 2.5 - 3 hour trip across
James Bay. In winter, the Centre can be reached by skis, snowmobile, float
plane or dogsled. During the fall freeze-up and spring break-up access is
by helicopter only.
The Centre may also be accessed from Washkaganish, Quebec,
which is 85 km Northeast of Hannah Bay.
