Full description
This is a 2-hour kayak tour where we will explore a wind-protected tributary to the Columbia River. The water is so clear that you can see the pebbles on the bottom of the river, not to mention wildlife! There are many species of fish, eagles, osprey, herons, ducks, and occasional otters that call this inlet home. Our professional guides will tell you the story of the local nature and ways of the river.

The tour starts and finishes at a boat launch about 20-25 minutes drive from Hood River, OR. You will meet your guides and get outfitted with all necessary paddling gear. They will be in a red truck and trailer. After a paddle talk with basic instruction and water safety introduction, we will launch our boats and paddle upstream. Along the way, we stop to enjoy a small beach where you can swim, take photos, and do a little exploring. We finish the tour with a paddle back out to the Columbia River to enjoy a view of the mountains of the Gorge.

We strive to connect our guests with this special place through the history of human use of this waterway as well as the wildlife that calls it home. This is an unforgettable experience in an indescribably beautiful setting.
