Join us for a paddle through the vast Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA) in Northern Minnesota. This is a true wilderness experience far from any roads or towns. Wildlife includes moose, otter, beaver, wolves, eagles, and more. We provide all necessary group gear, gourmet food, permit reservation and user fees, and of course your licensed professional wilderness guide committed to your successful adventure.
Plan to arrive the evening before put-in at a designated lodge to go over gear and trip details. The following morning, we head out for an early start to our adventure.
Spend a week on the water paddling 40 to 50 miles through pristine lakes and wilderness. We plan for a couple layover days during the trip to relax at camp, catch fish, practice outdoor skills, etc. We have years of experience in all aspects of the BWCA and our guides are teachers, cooks, leaders, storytellers, fishermen and naturalists. We can assure you that our team leads a safe, fun, and educational trip!
Menu items: We believe cliff bars and ramen soup have their place but not on our trips. We love a varied menu that includes fresh foods and gourmet meals. A few camp favorites include our famous BBQ pork spaghetti, Rumchata French toast, fruit and yogurt parfait, and campfire pizza.
Difficulty: Challenging
Our private guided trips feature exciting routes best suited for individuals with previous experience camping and canoeing. You should be very comfortable in the water and able to provide sufficient clothing and personal items. The pace will be relaxed at times and challenging at others. Expect to paddle several hours on paddle days and portage over land when necessary. Everyone will help portage gear and canoes between waterways.
