 Take a day to fully experience the beauty of the changing season.
Join us on the first day of October on the beautiful St Croix River for a day of paddling and floating down a gentle river near Minneapolis/St Paul. Home to eagle, osprey, beaver, heron, deer, and many other critters, this wild and scenic river will make you feel very far away from the pace and stressors of the city.
 This trip is designed with an easy pace, with plenty of time to paddle, relax, photograph the fall colors, enjoy some native flute and poetry, picnic along the river’s edge, and simply take in the beautiful surroundings.
It’s amazing what a day on the water can do for your spirits, you’ll come back refreshed and recharged.
No experience necessary, all you need to do is show up. Canoes, guide, a delicious lunch, and all other equipment is taken care of for you. All you bring is your personal gear for the day (when you register, you’ll receive a packing list so you can be comfortable, no matter the weather).
