About this river

Ducktrap River

The Ducktrap River is located in Maine, USA and is approximately 10 miles long. Historically, the river was used for logging and salmon fishing, but today it is primarily used for recreation and agriculture. The river's hydrology is influenced by tidal movements, and it is dammed at two locations - at Route 1 and at Ducktrap Village - to create reservoirs for irrigation and water supply. The dams also help regulate water levels for recreational use, such as canoeing and kayaking. The river is home to several species of fish, including brook trout and Atlantic salmon, and is surrounded by diverse vegetation, such as cattails, sedges, and marsh grasses. The surrounding landscape is also used for agriculture, primarily for growing blueberries and apples.
