Canoe Rentals
Some people just want to do it on their own...and the WI River is the perfect place to do just that. Rent one of our canoes for half a day or up to 5 days paddling a section of the Lower Wisconsin River. With the current rolling along at roughly 3 mph, it will take approximately 30 hours to paddle the entire 92 miles of the Lower Wisconsin River.
Camp Along the Way on the Sand Bars
Camp on the sand bars in the center of the river along the way. No permits are needed. Glass and fireworks are strictly prohibited. Please practice Leave No Trace.

If you decide to cancel within 7 days of your start date because of rain in the forecast, Wisconsin River Outings will provide you with a same season paddle credit. That credit may be used at any time during the current season, based on availability.Providing you arrive at our location, if there is lightning at NOON on the day of your departure, we will not put you on the water and we will give you a full refund. If you cancel over the phone, we will give you a same season paddle credit only.
