The Raquette River, sometimes spelled Racquette, originates at Raquette Lake in the Adirondack Mountains in the U.S. state of New York. 146 miles (235 km) long, it is the third longest river entirely in the state of New York.
The river is a popular destination for canoeing and kayaking. It passes through many natural and man-made lakes to its final destination at Akwesasne on the Saint Lawrence River. The river is the source of 27 hydroelectric plants operated by Brookfield Power, which at capacity can produce up to 181 megawatts of power.
The most popular species in the waters are smallmouth bass, walleye, yellow perch, and northern pike. Carry Falls and Stark Falls will also hold tiger muskie. The largest reservoir is Carry Falls and covers 3,170 acres in a wilderness setting.
