Quapaw Overnight

A two day voyageur canoe paddle 

One of our most popular options. Camp for one night on an expansive sandbar under a starry sky, or in a willow forest with sunset views.

Let our guides cook you a dinner over an open fire, and enjoy your retreat away from civilization and into the wilderness.

Experience needed - none! This trip is open to everyone of all abilities.

Incredible memories are waiting for you…
