Grand River Canoe Trip
EMAIL TO BOOK |
Canoeing the Grand River is a must do! In our area the river averages 1 meter in depth with a 2 km/hr current speed... so if you tip over, stand up! The wilderness landscape is filled with all types of birds... people find it hard to believe they are 1 hour from Toronto.
Our Grand River canoe trips can be customized from 2 to six hours in length. There are fresh water springs to drink from, places to body-surf and even picnic areas with washrooms.
The logistics of the trip is simple... we equip you with everything needed to do your canoe trip (paddle, life jacket,dry bag & boat). We meet at the end point, give you a ride to your start point then you paddle back to your vehicle at your own pace.

It is important to recognize that the weather-news channels are about 20% accurate in their daily forecasting... we are around 85% accurate!
If the weather is bad, we will contact you telling you to save your money and not come. With our cancelation you can get a full refund or pick another date... whatever is best for you.
Also if water levels are what we consider unsafe to paddle... we will cancel our trips with the option to raft or go in a non-tip yak... your safety with us is more important than your money!
We are the only incorporated outfitter business on the river carrying full liability as required by the Grand River Conservation Authority.
We have risk management plans in place, adult waivers and youth consent forms... and our interpretive staff is top notch, undergoing a 3 week training course.
