Shenandoah River Canoe, Kayak & Tube Trips

Shenandoah River Outfitters runs guided and self-guided paddling trips just minutes from the park, offering a relaxed, scenic counterpoint to mountain hiking. Float past farmland, forested riverbanks, and Blue Ridge foothills while spotting birds and wildlife. Options range from mellow tubing floats to half-day canoe or kayak trips — perfect for families or travelers looking to slow things down after long days on Skyline Drive.
