The upper Betsie River is a challenging adventure.
If you are not looking to get wet...this river is not for you.
It is a winding natural river with a swift current and trees and branches to maneuver. This river takes skill and experience.
Because of the difficulty of this river, we don't recommend it for beginners or children under 16.
We want everyone to have a great time on the Betsie so please make sure your group is all informed on the difficulty of this river and is confident in their paddling abilities.
At this time our River trips are limited to weekends only. Please check out the river trip schedule to set up a reservation (at least a day in advance).
