Package Description:
Explore the Grand River for a weekend or weekday paddle with our guided, all-inclusive camping package.

On Day 1, we paddle the historic Cayuga Run to your Brant Park Conservation campsite. On Day 2, we paddle the wild Oneida Run. Our hearty Tripper lunches are supplied both days.

The Cayuga run starts at our store-front dock on the Grand River. The first leg of the paddle drifts into the famous artist snapshot of Paris, see natural conglomerate rock, drink from cool fresh water springs, hike to the Lookout on the Black Walnut Trail, hear the history of the forgotten Neutral Tribe, pass the largest blue-heron rookery, visit the coldest creek in Southern Ontario, picnic on Sarah's Island, and see the remains of an 1800's corduroy road.

From your campsite, the river is right there for an evening paddle or bass fishing.

The next morning, we paddle the pristine Oneida Run. Let our guides make the rare Carolinian Forest of the Grand Valley come alive and see what you would normally miss!

This section is the gem of the Grand River. View the 300 year-old sycamore tree, climb bluffs overlooking the valley, hike on the interior trails to learn about plants, fauna and wildlife, hear about the native and settlement history of the valley, slip past the silent Three Sisters, and behold the beauty of Southern Ontario's near wilderness. As you round the last bend, the scenic town of Paris slips into sight, an ending worth the view (4-5 hour hike/paddle).

$235/person for groups of 2-3, plus tax

$199/person for groups for 4 or more, plus tax
