Rainy River is one of our ports of entry to Northwestern Ontario from Minnesota, with a border crossing that is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The town was built on the Rainy River that connects Lake of the Woods and Rainy Lake. Rainy River is known for being the “end of Yonge St” which originates in Toronto. This area is renowned for bird watching, great fishing & trophy hunting.
