3 Hour Wetland Canoe Trails

Experience the amazing diversity in wetland vegetation and wildlife while learning about the history and basics of wetland ecology. After a safety and canoeing introduction, spend about 40 minutes on a guided trail around the Heard wetlands, followed by free paddle time to explore on your own. No experience is necessary for any of the paddle programs. All participants will be given an introduction to canoeing that includes basic strokes, boat safety, and flatwater maneuvers. A limited number of canoe programs are available only by reservation and as water levels permit for groups of 12 or more.
