Santa Fe River Paddle

Sat 7 Apr, 10 am. Santa Fe River Preserve, 27025 North State Road 121, Alachua, 32615. 352-373-1078. Alachua Conservation Trust - [alachuaconservationtrust][email][events]

Last year’s rains and storms have kept the Santa Fe River running high. Depending on conditions, we will attempt to paddle the 8-mile stretch above Worthington Springs. This length of the upper Santa Fe River can be an adventure since there can be more than a few trees blocking the way. However, the scenery is spectacular, and we should see some wildlife.

RSVPs are required since we need to organize the boats. Let us know if you have a kayak or canoe or any extra boats you would be willing to let others borrow. If you do not have one, we will try to get something for you.

Insect repellant, sunscreen, water, and a sense of adventure. We may need to make shortage portages along the route so good footwear is advisable.
