WEST BRANCH OF THE PENOBSCOT RIVER CANOE TRIPS

 

 

A perfect family and group canoeing experience, the West Branch of the Penobscot River canoe trip is one for both beginners, vacationers, and all outdoor enthusiasts.

We'll paddle over 30 miles from the Lobster Stream put in, down the scenic West Branch of the Penobscot River into beautiful Chesuncook Lake, and take out at Umbazookus Stream.  We'll also spend some time visiting the famous Chesuncook Village, the only village in Maine that is accessible only by plane, boat or snowmobile.    

This is a very popular canoe trip as it is a 3 night/4 day trip that covers a portion of the journey that Henry David Thoreau took during one of his trips "To the Maine Woods".  Wildlife sightings are common and the views of Maine's Katahdin, in the distance from Chesuncook Lake, are striking. 

Mostly a flat water canoe trip, the West Branch of the Penobscot River has plenty of current for beginning canoeists to learn paddle strokes, and test their skills on a wild Maine river.  Campsites each night will be riverside and on beautiful Chesuncook Lake.  Each day there will be plenty of time for relaxing, swimming, fishing, or moose watching.
