About Beaver River
Beaver River is a small upland river system that originates in the Keppoch area (a broad highland that straddles Pictou and Antigonish counties), flows south‑eastward into Antigonish County as it collects headwater brooks (including Keppoch Brook), before ultimately drains toward the Northumberland Strait. The river flows across drumlinized uplands and mixed Acadian forest a landscape shaped by glacial deposits and modest bedrock relief typical of northern Nova Scotia.
