Canoe with cnc

Ready. Set. Paddle.

Each canoe program is led by a CNC Guide and offers a beginner-friendly way to try canoeing and experience the Chattahoochee River! Canoe Guides are all CPR/First Aid Certified and are experienced paddlers and naturalists. Don’t worry if you are new to canoeing. CNC provides all equipment, canoe, paddles, and personal flotation device (PFDs), for participants.

River Canoe Trips are suitable for both beginning and advanced paddlers (ages 8 and up), while our popular Family Canoe Days offer an introduction to canoeing (ages 5 and up). Want to find out what you may see out on the ‘Hooch? Book a canoe experience with the button below.
