The Raquette River is a wonderful place to paddle, suitable for both canoes and kayaks. The Raquette River system offers some of the longest continuous paddling in the Park. There are several easy access points and the river is slow enough that it can be paddled in either direction. The longest trip we offer on the river is from Long Lake to Tupper Lake. There is one carry on this route at Raquette Falls, just over a mile long. There are plenty of first come, first served campsites along the route. Side-trips are available for hiking (such as Kempshall Mountain east of Long Lake) and additional paddling (such as Stoney Creek Ponds, which also provides a connection to Upper Saranac Lake via Indian Carry). 

The Raquette River is also excellent for day trips. There are many places to launch a canoe or kayak and many car-to-car paddling options. We will be happy to provide you with more details including information about our shuttle services.

LONG LAKE TO TUPPER LAKE

Part of the Northern Forest Canoe Trails, the Long Lake Raquette River trip is a classic Adirondack paddling trip. Long Lake offers stunning views of the Western High Peaks while the gentle flow of the Raquette River wanders through lowland forests. 
The trip from Long Lake to Tupper Lake is approximately 35 miles. There is one carry on this route at Raquette Falls, just over a mile long and moderately difficult. Hiking (such as Kempshall Mountain east of Long Lake) and additional paddling (such as Stoney Creek Ponds, which also provides a connection to Upper Saranac Lake via Indian Carry).
-Suited to full day paddling excursions and 2-5 day trips
