Your canoe and tubing adventure begins with our staff transporting you and your fellow floaters upriver. You will end your canoe /tubing/kayaking trip back at The Rising Sun. Average canoeing/tubing/kayaking trip is 4 hours. Feel free to bring lunch and coolers but just remember the river is only ours to borrow. Please help keep our waterway clean.
We also offer a 7 hour canoeing/tubing/kayaking adventure. Please contact us for more information.
REMEMBER: Reservations are not required but are encouraged. We do run out of equipment on busy weekends and some Saturdays, so it will be a “first come/first serve basis” without a reservation.
