The Forks Area Maine offers a seemingly endless variety of flat water, swift water and whitewater…

…on a wide range of lakes, streams, ponds and rivers for canoe, kayak, raft, drift boat or tubing recreation.

If paddling is your passion or you would like to learn how to navigate gentle currents to raging whitewater, The Forks Area is the place to start. From Solon north to the Canadian Border paddle enthusiasts can spend a day to full week trips on our vast waterways.

Many area guides and outfitters offer guided trips and instruction, complete with packages that include equipment, meals and lodging. Travel woodlands and mountains rich in history and wildlife. Bring your camera, binoculars, or fishing gear and make a day of it. Stop along the way to feast your eyes, take little side hikes or just sit in the sun and watch the water roll by.

For information on available trips and outfitters contact The Forks Area Chamber of Commerce,  visit member websites or check out sites like www.visitmaine.com/Kennebec Valley Region.
