Whitewater Kayaking

Experience the thrill in your own kayak!!!!


Northern Pathfinders, Ltd. now provides whitewater kayaking trips on the Class II-III Schroon River. No prior whitewater experience is necessary. We use Ocean Kayak's Yahoo, a sit-on-top style of kayak, for a 7 mile whitewater trip that requires no previous kayaking ability.

The new sit-on-type kayaks eliminate the need to learn the most difficult technique to learn in a kayak, the Eskimo Roll. Paddlers can just climb on and paddle. If the boat tips over, instead of rolling or going to shore to empty your boat, you simply flip it over and get back on. It is as simple as that.

The Schroon River provides an excellent beginner level stretch of whitewater. We provide complete instruction on kayaking techniques and follow along on the trip.

Trip includes:

Professional Guides & Instruction
Kayak & Paddle
Helmet & Lifejacket
Wetsuit & Booties (in season)
River Snack


Price: $75.00/Person

Trips are limited to six per run so larger groups may have to split into a morning and afternoon trip.

After your trip on the river, you may decide you like kayaking so much you want to purchase your own!!! If that is the case, we also sell Ocean Kayak's. There are many styles and colors of kayaks to choose from, and we can help you select the right type for the kind of trips you will be taking. We have flatwater, touring, whitewater, and surfing kayaks, something for everyone!!!!
