Best Allagash River Canoe Trips

Guided Allagash river trips are one of the most pleasant and relaxing canoe trips in Maine. You can see Moose, Eagles, and all the wildlife.

Avoiding the Crowds on an Allagash Canoe Trip

I have been guiding on the Allagash river since 1974 and over the years I’ve seen a distinct pattern in terms of usage. Canoeists must use designated campsites on the waterway and there is no reservation system. In peak periods if paddlers don’t secure a campsite by mid-day or shortly thereafter, they may end up […]

Planning Your First Allagash River Canoe Trip: A Beginner’s Guide

From a dog sledding day trip:
“

A very belated thank you so very much for making my 50th birthday surprise extra special! I’ve been wanting to do this since I moved to Maine in 2001! Words are insufficient expressing the beauty of watching you and the pups work together as one. Gliding through nature at their level and speed gives a whole new perspective. The excitement and energy in their eyes was glorious! As a dog and nature lover, there was something special in this experience that even exceeded my highest expectations. Thank you for the wonderful homemade lunch as well. The personal touches you wove into the day sent it over the top. We are looking forward to our next (longer) experience with you and the pups. Thank you thank you thank you so much. We love who you are and what you do. Thank you for letting us experience this wonder with you!

– Cole, Konnie, Nick – Maine 2020
