 Paddle a ten mile section of
the beautiful Housatonic River in Northwestern Connecticut.
This section is a mixture of moving flatwater and easy whitewater and is
suitable for novice paddlers.
The famous Covered Bridge in West Cornwall
marks the halfway point and lunch is available at several places there. You may
also bring a picnic lunch (no glass bottles please!), and stop at one of the
many scenic spots along the river.
Choose rafting or
canoeing and journey down a 10 mile section of the Housatonic
River.
Come to our shop in the morning and a van will take you to Falls Village. When
you've completed your journey 10 miles downstream at Housatonic Meadows Picnic
Area we'll pick you up and bring you back to our shop where hot showers are
available.

child!)
