Paddle a six or ten mile section of the beautiful Housatonic River in Northwestern Connecticut.
 This section is a mixture of moving flatwater and easy whitewater and is suitable for novice paddlers.
The famous Covered Bridge in West Cornwall marks the halfway point and is a nice spot for a picnic lunch (no glass bottles please!), or stop at one of the many scenic spots along the river.
Come to our shop in the morning and a van will take you to Falls Village. When you've completed your journey 10 miles downstream at Housatonic Meadows Picnic Area we'll pick you up and bring you back to our shop where hot showers are available.
