Boating and Paddling |
|
With
lakes that stretch to Canada and thousands of miles worth of flowing
rivers and streams, western Pennsylvania provides endless opportunities
for boaters. Take a canoe down the National
Wild and Scenic Allegheny
River, float a raft through a series of whitewater rapids on
the Youghiogheny,
sail across Lake
Arthur, or paddle a sea kayak out to the Lake
Erie Islands. The city waters of the Three
Rivers provide kayakers and rowers the pleasure of capturing
Pittsburgh's skyline from an enlighteningly new perspective.

The Explorers Club of Pittsburgh has been on the water since...well, for a very long time! Rumor has it that ECP members used to make whitewater boats out of wood and other pre-plastic materials and run them down the Yough. They would trash up their boats and spend the next week repairing them for another run the following weekend. Now that's dedication to a sport! Use
the links on the menu above to navigate around the paddling pages
for information about these activities, links to other resources,
contact information for activity
coordinators, and upcoming paddling events. |
