Kayaking Information(APRIL - NOVEMBER)For this experience, we will be running a 5 to 8 mile stretch of one of the Shenandoah Valley's great rivers for day trips, or paddling 3 to 5 miles for half-day trips. We will be using Keowee and Manatee kayaks which have large open cockpits extending from the paddlers knees to the seat back. If the boat overturns, the paddler will simply fall out. These boats require no special training to enter, exit, or paddle. Participants will be provided boats, paddles, life jackets, dry bags (to take personal items down the river in), first aid kit, and bathroom kit. On cooler days wetsuits are available for rent.Kayak or Raft Bird Watching Experience (Optional): The rivers of the Shenandoah Valley provide some great bird watching. If you love birds and want to try some gentle recreational kayaking to watch them - call us. We'll provide everything you need including binoculars. Kayak or Raft Fall Foliage Float Trips: (September to November)These trips offer stunning views of the Shenandoahs Fall Foliage from a different perspective. Wetsuits are available for rent on cool weather days.WHAT TO WEARComfortable clothing or bathing suit appropriate for the expected weather and preferably made of synthetic fiber that dries quickly, and comfortable shoes that you do not mind getting wet and muddy in the river.
