Burke's Canoe Trips

Burke's Canoe Trips invites you to spend a day (or more) canoeing down the famous Russian River. In this day of stress and high-pressure living, Burke's Canoe Trips offers and outlet of carefree fun in the great outdoors.

Thousands of individuals, couples and families have made Burke's a Russian River tradition. Burke's will be glad to assist you in planning your group canoe trips.

Burke's provides your canoe, paddles, and life jackets for the day for a total of just $60.00 per canoe. Beginning at Burke's near Forestville, you paddle leisurely down-stream to the resort town of Guerneville. This is a gorgeous ten mile trip through redwoods, mountains and warm sunny beaches. The wildlife on the Russian River is spectacular. You can comfortably do this trip in approximately 3 ½ hours, actual canoeing time. However, most people picnic, swim, sunbath, etc. and are usually out close to 4 or 5 hours. Multi-day trips are also available.

Burke's provides complimentary return shuttle service after your trip. Our buses return to Burke's headquarters approximately every 1/2 hour all day until 6:00 p.m.

Overnight camping on the river under the redwoods is another great option at Burke's along with canoeing. We offer hot showers, clean rest rooms, good drinking water, picnic tables, dressing rooms, and fire rings. Group sites are available. We accommodate tents, trailers, and RV's! Please call for reservations in advance and pricing.
