Our Elk River Float Trips

We offer three main float trips on the Elk River. Our most popular being the Noel River Float Trip, a six (6) mile stretch of the Elk River, fed by three creeks open all season long, always with ample water. The Trestle Bridge Float Trip is a scenic, seasonal six (6) mile stretch of Elk River feed by two creeks, available when water levels allow. If you are looking for an adventure, the 12 Mile Float Trip is for our paddle enthusiast, those that might not be here to relax, but more for exercise and sport.

Our daily launch site is determined by water level which means your launch site cannot be guaranteed when booking.
