Kayak, Canoe, Paddle Board D&R Canal – Griggstown to Amwell Road

Let’s do some paddling in the D&R Canal between Griggstown and Blackwell Mills Bridge (3 hrs. roundtrip) or all the way to Amwell Road (4 hrs. roundtrip). And afterwards, we can refresh with some suds and an early dinner just down the road at The Tiger’s Tale in Skillman.

We’ll meet up at the Griggstown Canoe and Kayak Rental where we can launch AND, anyone who needs to, can rent a kayak or canoe (paddle boards are not available). There is plenty of parking available on the premises.

As safety measures, bring a BYD (life vest) – available with rentals – and a whistle. Also, please note that this is NOT a training or instructional event. All participants must have some basic experience and familiarity with the equipment. Time cannot be taken to give anyone special instruction in how to properly and SAFELY use it.

We want to be in the water and paddling by 1:30 PM, so, anyone who intends to rent a kayak or canoe or to use an INFLATABLE kayak or paddle board must arrive by the meet up time of 1:00 PM (best to arrive even earlier) to rent or inflate her/his watercraft and be ready to go at 1:30 PM. It’s not fair to make the other participants wait around for her/him to do this, O.K.?

Thanks to anyone and everyone who can provide assistance to others in carpooling or getting rented gear to the site of this event.
