MULTI-Day Self-Guided Adventures

Shoalhaven Gorge

Paddlers from all over the world come to paddle up the famous Shoalhaven Gorge. As one of Australia’s most untouched and remote flat water overnight paddling destinations, there is no better place to explore via paddle craft. 

Using a canoe, you can bring all of the things you need plus all of the things that you want, to escape to the wilderness in comfort and see all that The Canoeing Capital of Australia has to offer. 

To get the most out of this location we recommend 3 days/2 nights, but trips can be as short as 2 days/1 night or you can explore nearby side creeks and easily extend your trip to 4 or more days. Ask us for recommendations!

Bendeela to Tallowa Dam

If you prefer a point to point trip, this is for you. This 2-3 day paddle provides ever-changing views as you make your way from Bendeela Recreation Area into the Morton National Park via the Kangaroo River. 

The main stretch of river is 21 km from end to end but with an additional 21 km of exploration available through side journeys, with hidden gems spread throughout. 

With close to 20 campsites along the way you can choose to cover as much ground as possible for maximum exploration, or, take your time and soak up the atmosphere.
