Inflatable or Sit-On-Top KAYAK TRIPS - Gallatin River
Departure Times Daily - 9:30am, 1:30pm & 4:30pm |
Feeling adventurous? Get out on the water and paddle a one person inflatable kayak. Learn the basic skills from a guide and then try it out for yourself. More excitement than rafting, without requiring very much skill. If you are interested in eventually doing some whitewater kayaking, the duckie is a great way to try out solo boating! You get huge hits! The duckies are very stable which helps to keep you from flipping over when you hit those big holes and waves. A guide will introduce you to the techniques and then assist you as you navigate class II and III rapids.
Participants must have good swimming skills. Minimum recommended age is 13.
