 The adventure begins with a scenic motorcoach tour to a secluded mountain lake, where you will board Indian-style 37-foot, 20 passenger canoes which are fast, stable, and easy to maneuver. Paddle under the direction of an experienced guide, scan the shore for wildlife and learn the unique natural and Indian history of the Ketchikan area. The lake, part of a lush rain forest, is ideal for canoeing and is surrounded by the Tongass National Forest, the largest National Forest in the United States.
Stop ashore for an Alaskan-style snack. A knowledgeable guide will lead a short nature walk highlighting the flora and fauna of the rain forest, including such features as carnivorous plants. Paddle back to the canoe dock and reboard your motorcoach that returns to the dock. This adventure is a rare opportunity to comfortably explore Southeast Alaska in the manner of its original explorers and early culture.
Tour Includes: Round trip transfer from the dock or hotel to the mountain lake; two hours canoeing, which includes the nature walk, an Alaskan-style snack and a souvenir “I Canoed Ketchikan“ pin. All participants are provided with raingear and life jackets.
