Fall Fantasy Canoe & Kayak - Canoes & Brews (10/19)
Enjoy the fall foliage on a gorgeous canoe escape in the Catskills. This gentle day on a calm lake involves no portaging (carrying the canoe) and is an easy walk from the parking lot to the canoe launch. We'll also have the option for a gentle hike around the lake. Fishing instruction is an option, no gear required. Our guides will offer paddling and fishing instruction for everyone who is interested.
No previous canoe or kayak experience necessary!
