Paddling the Winooski

The river corridor penetrates the landscape of Vermont more effectively than any other transportation route. It brings the towns, farms and people of the Green Mountain State within the direct purview of the canoeist. This guide is designed to assist those who would like to take advantage of cleaner waters and improved public access to the Winooski waterway by exploring the river valley--in its haunting cultural and natural splendor--as it was experienced by the early wilderness explorers.

The Winooski Valley Park District has produced a guide to paddling the watershed. Go to their website at www.wvpd.org and click on Boating to find the guide.
