Whitewater kayaking is an excellent way to challenge yourself, get fit, and see beautiful places accessible only by kayak. With whitewater kayaking you can take things as far as you want to go or as relaxed as you like. Whether you want to learn to kayak off of waterfalls and run class IV whitewater or if you want to be proficient enough to run class II and III rapids, we can get you on the right track.
We offer lessons and trips.
Thinking whitewater kayaking might be for you? This two to three hour sampler gives participants a ’hands on’ introduction into whitewater kayaking.
Learn basic strokes and paddling technique, and how to wet exit. Participants can also attempt an Eskimo roll after instruction. Participants will have a chance to learn about the ratings of rapids, reading whitewater, and the option to paddle a couple of class I-II rapids.
