Description

Spend a day in the wilds of McHenry County as we paddle seven miles of Nippersink Creek completely within the undeveloped areas of Glacial Park. Meet at Keystone Landing to learn basic paddling techniques, kayak safety, and river kayaking as well as some natural history of the creek. The trip includes a stop for a primitive picnic so bring a sack lunch and plenty of water to drink. Wear shoes that can get wet and fully secure to your feet. Don't forget sunscreen! Be aware there are no restroom facilities along the creek.
Children must be 9 years old to use a single kayak.
