We are going to take a trip down the Rancocas from Burlington County College to Iron Works Park in Mount Holly. This is a 14 mile one-way trip that should take about 4-5 hours to complete, including a stop for lunch (so make sure you bring one!). This is an easy paddle on a comfortably wide obstruction free river, novice paddlers are welcome. It is also suitable for all boat lengths. We will meet at Iron Works Park in Mount Holly at 10:00am, with the goal of having a shuttle set up and being on the water by 11:00am.

We will set up the shuttle the day of the paddle when we meet at the takeout. There ARE several portages along this route, so be prepared to do them (mental note to self... bring shoes).

There is no rentals available for this paddle, but I am able to bring one extra boat if you ask me in advance. Because this is a county park, PFD's are required. This paddle will be held rain or shine, but in case of extreme weather, there will be a posting on the website by 8:30am the morning of the paddle, and if there are any questions, then you can feel free to call me at 410-507-5504.
