canoe camping
Watercraft wilderness lodging
Canoe camping is a form of wilderness travel that combines paddling with overnight camping, using the canoe to carry gear to remote campsites inaccessible by road.
Trips range from single overnights to multi-week expeditions through lake chains or rivers: We spent a week canoe camping in the Boundary Waters.
The canoe serves as both transportation and gear hauler, allowing campers to bring more equipment than backpackers while reaching backcountry locations.
