Transportation & Shuttle
With many access points you can choose a trip length and river section that fits your paddling style and we are happy to discuss the many options you have.

We will load your gear into our vehicle and drive you to the desired starting point on the river to start your paddle back to Allagash. You have the choice to camp on our property, rent a cabin the night before your trip or drive in the day you arrive. Our Shuttle Service means that you drive to your desired starting point with your vehicle and we drive it to your take out destination while you are paddling on the river. Prior to your trip we will contact you to make arrangements for us to have a key to your vehicle. Prices are based per vehicle with a discount for multiple vehicles.
