Preissac Lake

Preissac Lake lies among the forests and lakes of the Canadian Shield, its waters broken by islands and irregular shores. The Algonquin name Kenoje Sagaigan means “lake of pike”, a reminder of the fish found in these inland waters. The lake forms part of the headwaters of the Kinojévis River, a waterway used by Algonquin travellers on routes between the Ottawa and Harricana river systems. Canoes and portages linked these waters to a much wider network across the forested interior.
