Join Paddle Florida
, January 14-17, 2011 for a three-day paddle
along the Peace River Canoe Trail, part
of Florida's statewide trail system
managed by the Florida Dept. of Environmental
Protection Office of Greenways and Trails.
The Peace River is a serene, slow-moving
river amazingly isolated from civilization.
The stresses of every day life will slip
away as you coast between high banks and
round sweeping curves amongst tiny islands,
looking for that chance encounter with
deer, otter, alligators, an occasional
black bear and an abundance of bird life.
(For an early history of the region, read
an article by river guide, Lars Andersen,
on another
Paddle Florida page.)
Paddle Florida on the Peace River is held
in cooperation with the Florida Park Service,
Polk County, the City of Ft. Meade and
Hardee County.
Join us for three days of camaraderie
and the thrill of paddling another Florida
gem.
