The
ride on the River!
As you prepare for your peaceful journey down the Niobrara River, there are a few things you will want to take with you. They will make your trip more relaxing and enjoyable.
We recommend these accessories:
- Appropriate clothing (you may want to cover up after a couple of hours of sun so that you don't get burned.)
- Water container, so that you do not get dehydrated.
- Food (in water tight containers)
- Shoes for wading (not sandals)
- First Aid kit
- Sun Lotion
Now that you are prepared for the trip, there are a few pieces of advice and SAFETY PRECAUTIONS you must follow.
- First, if it has been awhile since your last river trip or if this is your first time, please let us know and we will give you lessons on river safety.
- Please be kind to other people and property on the river. We want to be able to provide this beautiful scenery for generations to come.
- As a rule canoes typically hold 2 adults, but if you have children or an odd number in your group this can be changed.
- Please do not try to overload canoes or drag them on the ground.
- While canoeing down river always keep your canoe parallel with the current. This way you are less likely to tip your canoe.
- Watch for some of the landmarks that are on your map so that you will know where your Take Out point is located.
- When you see your Take Out point, you want to come in parallel to the bank. DO NOT HIT nose first.
REMEMBER TO JUST RELAX AND HAVE A GREAT TIME!
