Educational-for-adults, Local, Only in Rhode Island, Summer Guide
This summer, the WRWC will be leading four exciting and informative paddles on the historic Woonasquatucket River. Some of Rhode Island’s foremost experts on history and ecology will be leading trips in our “floating classroom” as we explore the hidden beauty that runs from Smithfield through downtown Providence.
The WRWC has a fleet of canoes and kayaks with your name on it, and offers paddling and safety instruction before each trip, so paddlers of all skill levels and experience are welcome! These trips provide a truly unique view of one of Rhode Island’s most significant rivers. In addition to offering great paddling and beautiful scenery, these tours provide an excellent opportunity to learn about the river’s history and the wide variety of birds and wildlife that call the Woonasquatucket River home.
Advance sign-up is required for all paddling trips!
Price: $40/person if you are using one of our boats, $20/person if you are bringing your own boat.
