Maine Rangeley Canoe Adventure

The Rangeley Lakes Region is home to some of the largest lakes and mountains in Maine. We are teaming up with Far Out Maine, an outdoor adventure company owned by our AB guide, Bill to bring you this canoeing adventure. Our Maine Rangeley Canoe Adventure may challenge your comfort zone, but we’ll be there to assist you every step of the way! We’ll basecamp at Rangeley Lake State Park, with an option to spend a night out on Student’s Island on Lake Mooselookmeguntic. If canoeing is new to you, no worries! We will teach you the skills you need to enjoy this trip.

Although the focus of this tour will be both flat water and swift water canoeing, there will be plenty of other activities available from hiking, swimming, exploring local towns, food and history. And above all, a chance to relax and breath in some fresh mountain air!
