Lynn River

The Lynn River is a fresh water river located in the geographic region of Southwestern Ontario, Canada in Norfolk County.

Summary

This river empties into Lake Erie at the town of Port Dover. The Lynn Valley Trail follows the river between Port Dover and the town of Simcoe, which is also located on the river.

This watershed stretches throughout Norfolk County and is one of few cold water tributaries feeding into the Eastern Lake Erie basin. Recently, a local group known as the "Friends of Silver Lake" have been advocating dam repair. This organization has set its sites on restoring an old griss mill dam that has impeded this watershed for years. Water quality both upstream and downstream have suffered greatly as a result.
