We offer guided and self-service river trips on the Schuylkill River, French Creek, Perkiomen Creek, and beyond.

We can run trips out of these locations (and more), including:
  • Reading (and above for select trips)
  • Gibraltar / Exeter
  • Birdsboro
  • Monocacy
  • Douglassville
  • Pottstown
  • Phoenixville
Lastly, we’re available for guided trips, rentals, and instruction elsewhere upon request.
