About the Little Narraguagus River

The Little Narraguagus River is a short but interesting waterway. It flows through parts of Hancock County and Washington County. Even though it's small, it plays a role in the local environment.

Where the River Starts

The Little Narraguagus River begins its journey at Bear Pond. This pond is located in a place called Maine Township 28, MD, in Hancock County. The water from Bear Pond flows out to form the start of the river.

The River's Journey

From Bear Pond, the river flows mostly southeast and then east. It travels for about 3.3 miles (5.3 kilometers). Along its path, the river winds through different landscapes.

Where the River Ends

The Little Narraguagus River doesn't flow into the ocean directly. Instead, it joins a larger river called the Narraguagus River. This meeting point, where two rivers come together, is called a confluence. The confluence happens in a town called Beddington, which is in Washington County.
