Minnesota River History Weekend

Paddlers have long been a lively bunch as you’ll experience at this unique celebration. Join in the revelry aboard a guided 10-person voyageur canoe. On land and by canoe, you’ll encounter historical characters as they emerge from river banks, islands and watercraft to tell the tale of the Minnesota River Valley in story and song in a one-of-a-kind “paddling theater.” Or launch your own canoe or kayak to be one of the first to paddle rapids no one has seen in more than 100 years.
