The four to five hour adventured-filled Oneida run is our most popular route. While offering some fun rapids that throw up a splash; this route is still great for beginners and requires no special skill.

Your trained and experienced guide will lead you and your group through the beautiful Carolinian river ecosystem showing you more than you ever thought a river had to offer. This trip includes a fascinating hike along the hills of the river valley to a scenic lookout over the meandering Grand.

On your hike you’ll find out what’s so special about one rare and very old American Sycamore tree. For those who enjoy holding an ear to the past, you can hear the stories of the original inhabitants of the Grand River Valley and the later European settlement of the area.

You’ll feast on a well earned lunch on the riverbank or on one of many small islands before running the trip’s most enjoyable set of rapids. A spring of cold, pure water flows into the Grand near Spring Island, an excellent spot to stop for a taste. Before paddling into picturesque Paris, you’ll pass by the majestic ‘three sisters’ standing strong with the memory of an age of iron and steam long passed.

As people step out of their boats in Paris, the first thing on their minds is, “When can we do it again?” The Oneida is a near-wilderness experience you won’t forget.
