The Redstone River is a
Haliburton County in central Ontario, Canada that flows from southern Algonquin Provincial Park to the Gull River
.
Course
The river begins at Upper Redstone Lake in southern Algonquin Provincial Park. It flows southwest through the
West Guilford and just north of Ontario Highway 118. The Gull River flows as part of the Trent–Severn Waterway via the Trent River to Lake Ontario. Since the Gull River system flows to the summit of the waterway at Balsam Lake, its tributaries including Redstone River serve as an important water flow control reservoir
