Wilderness Inquiry Mississippi River Day Trip: Memorial Day Paddle
Mississippi River day trips are a great way to experience the outdoors right in your own backyard. We'll provide voyageur canoes, staff, all equipment and shuttles. These trips involve and engage everyone regardless of their age, ability, or previous outdoor experience. Join us on Memorial Day and discover the National Park that exists right in the heart of the Twin Cities! Explore the river and its history in our 24-foot Voyageur canoes, which hold 6-10 paddlers. This trip will take you from River Park (in Brooklyn Park) to Boom Island. Tucked amidst sandy beaches and towering cottonwood trees, the river provides habitat for some of the 270 different species of birds that migrate through and rest in the Mississippi's steep bluffs. Come enjoy the world-class river that flows though your back yard. $45 per person; youth 17 and under: $30.
