Participant Fitness & Mobility Policy

For the safety and enjoyment of all guests, our guided trips require a minimum level of physical fitness and mobility. If a guide determines that a participant is unable to safely keep pace with the group due to skill, fitness, or mobility limitations, the participant may be turned back at the guide’s discretion. For guided Kayaking and stand-up paddleboard trips, we follow the American Canoe Association's Essential Eligibility Standards to determine if someone can participate in all water-based activities. Your guide will determine if you can safely participate. For more information on these standards, please refer to https://americancanoe.org/eec/

We strongly encourage all participants to review trip difficulty ratings and physical requirements before booking. If you have any questions about your ability to participate, please contact us in advance — we’re happy to help you choose an appropriate adventure.
Please note: No refunds will be issued if a guide turns you back.
