    Each 45-minute paddle includes a brief on-shore introduction to kayaking followed by a loosely guided paddle on the river, led by kayakLanCo’s team with support from Susquehanna National Heritage Area staff. You’ll enjoy scenic views, a smooth paddle route, and as much guidance or independence as you need—this is a great way to build confidence and connection with the water.
