Free Float Trip on the Sangamon River. Sangamon River Forest Preserve to Riverwood. Approximately 6 river miles.

Level 3 Sangamon River Float Trip. Level 3 trips are generally for more experience paddlers and are longer with unknown but likely river obstacles requiring portages or careful navigating through or across obstacles. They also do not offer formal restroom facilities during the trip and we generally do not do formal lunch stops (although participants are welcome to bring food and eat as they prefer).

We will be starting at Sangamon River Forest Preserve and heading downriver to Riverwood (Scott’s House). This is approximately a 4-5 hour river trip. A very beautiful stretch of river! Join us!

We will be departing from Sangamon River Forest Preserve at 9am. You are welcome to meet us there with return transportation provided or park your car at the end point (Riverwood) and we will shuttle participants up to the starting point. You will need to arrive at Riverwood at 8:15 to shuttle up. Please state your preference in the comments..
