Top 8 Paddling Destinations for Wildlife
***
The Top 8 Paddling Destinations for Wildlife is a brief article containing a list of what Adventure Kayak Magazine considers to be the most exciting paddling routes for those interested in seeing wildlife up close, while furthering their knowledge of either canoeing or kayaking. The article also provides links for interested readers to explore trips to the featured destinations, which is mainly composed of Canadian locations.
The list features: a canoe trip through a collection of rivers and lakes in Manitoba and northern Ontario to catch sight of moose, ranked at number one on the list. Remote trips available in Northern Canada that will likely allow you to spot grizzly bears. Kayak trips on the coast of British Columbia is reportedly a great place to watch Orcas. Canoeing in Quebec could allow you to see wolves at a distance. In British Columbia, when paddling in the alpine rivers and lakes it’s said that you’ll be able to spot mountain goats. In Ecuador, while paddling near low hanging branches you may spot a sloth. While whitewater kayaking in Costa Rica, there’s a good chance you’ll spot sea turtles. Finally, you could spot a woodland caribou if you take a paddling trip to northern Saskatchewan.
This relates to our Outdoor Ed course because although most of us are beginner paddlers if anyone wants to go further into canoeing, or any kind of paddling activity, and if they would like to be near more wildlife, it’s interesting to discover what the most rewarding locations to paddle would be.
