About this event
Event Description
We will paddle from Talfourd Creek down the St Clair River and around Stag Island back to the start.
The paddle downstream is with current so makes for an easy paddle.
Back upstream is against the current so can be a bit of a challenge for some.
Other Important info
This paddle is in current of the St Clair River and there may be power boat & freighter traffic.
Please check if you have any questions about gear, skills, boat or any other items before signing up for the paddle.
