Q. What is better than unwinding Friday after work with a 1 hour (or less) paddle down the beautiful Susquehanna River with friends?
If you need a boat and gear, we have it…
A. That same paddle, but ending with a flight of beer for your tasting and enjoyment!
Two Ways to register:
1. I have my own paddle gear:
If you have your own gear, you are just a couple clicks away from being registered. Just click on the “Schedule Appointment” button and you can register right there by paying $25. with a credit card or PayPal.
Registering in this way gets you the shuttle bus to the put-in spot at Canal Park, an opportunity to sign the bus, and your first flight of beers.
2. I need paddling gear:
If you need paddling gear…we got you! Simply select all the gear you need from the options offered here, add that to your cart…and then press “check out” when you are ready to go.

The paddle - all class 1 (easiest rating) water - less than two miles
As per the Itinerary above, we begin our adventure at the Riverside Adventure Company parking lot @ 4:30 p promptly.
We drive up to he Canal Park public access for unmotorized water craft.
Adventurers can select single, double kayaks as well as canoes or stand-up paddle boards for their paddle. You can also use your own gear.
With typical river conditions, this paddle might take up to an hour.
Along the way, you will pass the Fish and Boat launch, some water company structures, some boulders protruding from he water, and if levels are “lowish” you might see some rocky bedrock outcroppings that will produce a few riffles in the water.
When you get within a 1/4 mile of the Danville/Riverside Rt. 54 bridge, you want to start making your way river right. There you will see some signs indicating your take-out point.
Leave your boats, paddles and pfd’s on the side of the river, and from there, our signs and staff will direct you to the Old Forge Brewing Company location on Mill Street for the next part of your Adventure!
