Canoeing and Kayaking in New Hampshire We offer custom guided canoe and kayak trips, tours, and lessons with rentals statewide May through November.New Hampshire’s numerous scenic rivers, lakes, and estuaries provide paddlers with a variety of water-based experiences for all interests and abilities. We will lead you on the best paddle trips in New Hampshire! On a guided canoe or kayak trip you will enjoy gliding through New Hampshire’s history on Native American water routes, into the industrial revolution, and beyond to witness conservation efforts as seen by today’s birds, fish, and moose.If you’ve never paddled before, or would like to try paddling a different kind of boat, just ask for a lesson. Our guides have paddled over a thousand miles and taught people young and old this enjoyable life-long sport. You can choose a lesson on a solo or tandem (two-person) canoe, touring kayak, sea kayak, or sit-on-top kayak.Don’t think you need a lesson? Poor paddling habits can lead to exhaustion and arguments with a tandem partner. Incorrect positioning combined with steering by “switching sides” leads to poor navigation and dangerous situations. Take paddling lessons with Outdoor ESCAPES New Hampshire and you will learn good habits! On Day Trips… – Get in and out of your boat (canoe or kayak) without injury. – Position your body to move with efficiency–and look great! – Use various paddle strokes to control direction and speed. – Become aware of hazards and safely navigate lakes and/or rivers. – Develop a communication system with respect for your partner/group.On Multi-Day Trips… – Develop whitewater skills – Manage portages – Learn and practice rescue techniques – Discover canoe/kayak camping and survival skills – Explore the Northern Forest Canoe Trail, Connecticut River, Umbagog National Wildlife Refuge, Lakes Region, Pemigewasset/Merrimack Watershed, and New Hampshire's Atlantic seacoast including Great Bay National Estuary.Whether you want a guided two-hour nature tour or a multi-day expedition, Outdoor ESCAPES New Hampshire will give you an unforgettable experience in New Hampshire’s wilderness!As a rule, the longer your trip, the more you get out of it.
