Looking for an all-day outdoor activity? Get away from everyone and everything on this 9-hour paddle down The Galena River. You meet us at Nuts Outdoors in Galena, IL. We shuttle you to New Diggins, Wi and you end your trip at the docks in Galena a block from our store location. You won’t feel like you are in Illinois for this trip. You probably won’t even feel like you are in the 21st century.

You will cross through a landscape limestone bluffs, prairies, rolling hills, and herds of cattle. You are likely to see deer, eagles, muskrat, beaver and other animals along the way.
The current will take you downstream, but this is certainly a trip for people in good health, with some physical endurance and willingness to be on the water for 9-hours. This is a great trip for groups, birthday parties, bachelor, and bachelorette parties.
