This is a very special trip for wine lovers with a limited # of participants. We'll explore both the scenic kayaking of the NY Canal System and the wines of the Finger Lakes. We'll stay at a historic Victorian home in downtown Geneva and each day, we'll paddle part of the canals and sample wines from a different local Finger Lakes winery. We will also dine at local restaurants and explore the charming downtown area of Geneva, which sits right on Seneca Lake. Participants will paddle part of the Erie Canal and the entire Cayuga-Seneca Canal, including paddling through several of the canal locks. This trip is designed to be beginner kayaker friendly with lower mileage per day. Its a relaxed trip. We will need to shuttle cars each day. I do have limited availablility of rental kayaks and gear for the trip.
