Loon Lake Kayaking

Loon Lake Kayaking Itinerary:

• Day 1

  Your trip begins today in Loon Lake, CA.  We meet at 8:30 p.m. at our Loon Lake campsite.  We’ll have a group orientation, meet the guides and get ready to kayak the next day.  Late arrivals can catch up in the morning.  Dinner is on your own tonight. 

• Day 2

  We’ll have breakfast in camp and then begin paddling on Loon Lake.  A picnic lunch is provided by the guides, and we’ll have time to hike along the shore and do some exploring.  We’ll return to our campground in the late afternoon with more time for hiking the scenic shoreline.  The guides will prepare a great dinner in camp tonight.  All meals included.

• Day 3

  After breakfast we pack up camp and head out to paddle and explore another part of beautiful Loon Lake.  We’ll have a picnic lunch on shore and paddle or hike until we’re ready to call it a weekend – usually around 3 p.m.  Breakfast and lunch included.

Although we do our very best to adhere to the schedule listed above, this itinerary is subject to change for numerous reasons beyond our control. The final paddling route is left up to the discretion of the guides, and is based upon trip member’s skill and weather conditions.

Professional instruction and guiding; all meals from breakfast on Day 2 through lunch on Day 3; 2 nights camping accommodation, single kayaks (unless double specifically requested) including all kayaking equipment.

Transportation from your hometown to group meeting point; park entrance fees where required, insurance of any kind; alcoholic beverages; soft drinks; guide gratuities and items of a personal nature.

This trip is rated Easy Active (2) as we plan to kayak 3-5 hours per day in calm conditions.  While conditioning is not stressed as critical to your enjoyment of this trip, even easy paddling will involve the use of several muscle groups in both your lower and upper body, and being reasonably fit is important to your enjoyment of the trip.

Daytime temperatures usually range between 60° - 80° F, with evening temperatures dropping to 50s - 60s. You may encounter cool and rainy conditions, including fog and wind. Rain is a possibility so adequate raingear is important.
