RiverFest

Working in partnership with Androscoggin Land Trust (ALT), this annual event is open to all to launch canoes, kayaks, paddleboards, (and more!) into the Androscoggin River and complete one of three courses of varying length and challenge! Pick your paddle: Choose from a 7-mile course with rapids, a 3-mile rapid-free course with an up-river challenge, or a short, fun 1.5 miles. This event is held in conjunction with the Great Falls Brewfest, which takes place that afternoon, a stone’s throw across the river from our starting line, (and thanks to Baxter Brewing, all pre-registered racers 21+ receive a discount on admission to the Brewfest). All paddlers are entered to win raffle prizes from local businesses, which are awarded after the race. This event is a unique opportunity to take in the natural beauty of the Androscoggin River with a group of fellow paddlers.
