Leaf Peeping Paddle

Come enjoy a relaxed, guided kayaking trip designed for beginners and nature lovers alike. Learn how you can use fall foliage as a tool to identify trees or just relax and enjoy the view.

We’ll paddle the Mattabesset river at an easy pace, taking in the brilliant colors of fall reflected in the water. Along the way, you’ll see the fiery reds of silky dogwood, winterberry, Virginia creeper, red, silver, and sugar maples; golden yellows from catalpas, shagbark hickories, and sycamore trees glowing against the oranges of buttonbush and wild grape. This peaceful paddle is the perfect way to celebrate the season and connect with nature from the water’s edge.
