Prehistoric Paddle on Paint Creek
June 28, 2017 @ 8:00 am
An event every week that begins at 8:00 am on Wednesday, repeating until July 26, 2017
During the summer, you can join a Park Ranger from Hopewell Culture National Historical Park for a guided paddle on Paint Creek.
Boaters begin the journey at Water’s Edge Canoe Livery. You may bring your own boat or rent a kayak or canoe from the livery. Boaters are shuttled north of Seip Earthwork at route 41 on the shores of Paint Creek. The tour is approximately 6-miles and will last from 3 hours to 5 hours, ending at the beautiful Copperas Mountain, where boaters will be picked up and shuttled back to the livery. A short hike to the central mound of Seip Earthwork is included in the tour.
Things to bring along: sack lunch, water, sunscreen and sunhat. Experienced paddlers only. This tour is not for beginners. If you have any concerns or questions please call the park.
