Learning Together Outdoors

Guided Family
Canoe Trips

Will it be a moose swimming across the lake? The breezy point you sit on as the sun sets? The family bonds that grow stronger around a crackling campfire? The proud smile after portaging a canoe? Or, like many past participants, will it just be “the whole trip”?

Join a Wolf Ridge naturalist on a memory making, guided 5 day trip into the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness this summer. Whether you have never touched a paddle, or you still smile over past canoeing stories, our trips are designed to be fun, educational, and adventurous.
