Kayak the 3km whitewater flume ride of splash in Southern Ontario... just 1 hour west of Toronto. A 4-5 hour trip depending on flow volumes.

We have the perfect river to try... the Nith River. This paddle is on one of the most unique rivers in the Grand Watershed. In the spring it is a fury of whitewater... with close shorelines... serenity undisturbed... sitting in the heartland of Ontario. It is a river of pools and tumbling currents... a challenge to read and navigate. This is an excellent river to kayak on. It is not deep... but it moves. In April-May, this placid river of summer... becomes a kayaking delight. The spring run-off is like riding on the back of a dragon... a flume ride that races towards the Grand. It rushes past forested clay bluffs... under towering cliffs of gravel. It swirls around limestone rockeries at Devil's Cave... then pours over mini-sets of rapids to the Great Divide. Here the river splits and the fun begins.

On the right is a boulder-rushing section that kayaks can test their fleetness... and when you think it is done... there is more to come. Water-slides, standing waves and pools... all condensed into a one kilometer section. A perfect place to practice what you have learned... a kayak playground. And it does not end... as you enter the Mighty Grand River with awe... the Nith becomes small. Your final descent is the 100-meter dash through the High Level Rapids. As the Grand slows down... so do you... time to get out.

Includes: B&B, guide, helmet, wetsuit, kayak & equipment, shuttle ride and our Tripper Lunch.
