Wild Rivers Conservancy

Minnesota Interstate State Park - Boat Landing

Day Paddles

Explore the St. Croix and Namekagon Rivers with our fully-supported paddles. There's always something to discover in this national park.

Fall is in full swing! Paddle the wild and scenic St. Croix River with the Conservancy’s Climate Resiliancy Specialist Alexis Monti and learn about the lives of the trees and how we can build a more resilient landscape in the face of climate change. We’ll even try our hand at identifying by sound the birds the trees of the riverway attract. This is peak season for migrating birds and color changes.This is a fully supported paddle. You will be provided with kayaks, paddles, and PFDs, as well as a shuttle service back to your vehicle after the paddle.Cost: $65River Stretch: Taylors Falls to Osceola LandingVehicle Admission: <a href="https://www.dnr.state.mn.us/state_parks/permit.html" title="https://www.dnr.state.mn.us/state_parks/permit.html" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">MN State Park sticker/vehicle pass</a> needed to park, $7/day or $35/annualPaddle Length: 7 milesPaddle Difficulty: Beginner friendly, but intermediate paddlers preferredBathrooms: At start and endWhere to Meet: MN Interstate State Park - Boat LaunchRecommended items to bring/wear:<ul><li>Water Bottle</li><li>Lunch/Snack</li><li>Sunglasses</li><li>Sunscreen</li><li>Weather Appropriate Clothing</li><li>Hat</li><li>MN State Park Sticker/vehicle pass to park (carpooling recommended)</li></ul>Cancelation Information:This event will be canceled due to inclement weather such as heavy rains and thunderstorms.Refund Policy:There are no refunds for participant-initiated cancellations.
