Paddling Rouge River – SUP/Kayak/Canoe – L2 (Easy)

Join us for a scenic and active paddle adventure on the Rouge River

This paddle is perfect for those seeking a fun, low-intensity outing on the water. We’ll launch from the mouth of the Rouge River near Lake Ontario at the designated put-in area, then paddle upstream through serene natural surroundings, spotting a variety of local flora and fauna along the way.

Once we reach our turnaround point just past the 401 (if water levels permit), we’ll head back downstream to where we began, while enjoying the peaceful flow of the river.

Whether you're looking to explore a quieter side of GTA or just enjoy a relaxing paddle with great company, this is a great way to spend a day on the water.

Bring your own SUP, kayak, or canoe and join us for this L2/Easy rated route which is suitable for paddlers of all levels.
