GUIDED TRIPS
What is it ? - A casual, no stress weekly group trip, guided by an experienced club volunteer, exploring both familiar and new areas of our region.
Who is it for ? - Club members and guests ($10 and a signed waiver required) who are able to paddle for 2+ hours at a time for distances of 10+ km
When is it ? - 10:00am Sundays in June, July and August. Check the schedule and our calendar for trip days.
Do trips run in inclement weather ? - Sometimes mother nature wants to spoil the fun. If Environment Canada is forecasting a 20% or higher chance of thunderstorms, the trip will be cancelled. If there are high winds, or light rain forecast we will likely still paddle, but may change our route. All decisions are left to the discretion of the trip leader. A go or no go decision will be made by 8:00am on the morning of the trip. Those who have indicated that they will be attending will receive an email from the trip leader, and will NOT be posted on our website or social media. When in doubt, check your email before leaving home.
What do I need to bring? - BYOB (Bring your own boat) or use a club boat and gear (must be pre-arranged with club staff), sunscreen, hat, water bottle and snacks or light lunch.
How much does it cost ? - Our guided trips are included in your Muskoka Paddle Club membership.
How do I join in the fun ? - Club members will receive a weekly email with the trip destination, meeting point, directions on how to get there and paddling distance. If you are interested in coming, you will reply to the designated trip leader for that week. If for whatever reason you cant attend after confirming your attendance you must inform the leader directly, not the club email.
