Lovely to sit by, or take a canoe trip downstream from Batten Kill Canoe in Sunderland, VT. They will drop you off upstream and pick you up as far south-west as Shushan, New York for a reasonable fee. Better than paddling back up stream. They will also rent you a canoe. Lots of nature walks around the river in the same area, too. The Batten Kill is a fly-fisherman's dream river, though it is catch-and-release.
The trips never took as long as they said they would but we always have had a blast. We usually go once a summer when it gets hot. They drive you to the launch and pick you up at the end. Bring a picnic.
Canoeing was fantastic!! Staff was very knowledgeable and good judges of what we were capable of doing physically!!
This is one terrific day tubbing with your family. Both of my children ages 8 and 12 enjoyed this day out. I found this to be a priceless value for a family to create forever memories.
If you know about it you know. If you have never fished it, you should and be prepared with a large dose of humility and a real learning curve.
We took 2 hours to go down the river
It was nice but the 2 hours trip did not go near any what I would call scenic area
There are a lot of dead trees in the river
It is also pretty hard to know exactly ( even approximately ) where you are and how long you still have to paddle to destination
Nice kayaking but I expected a little more looking at the previous reviews
