Description
Paddle through the Columbia River Gorge on a kayak tour from Cascade Locks. Explore Herman Creek, Government Cove, and the Columbia River. Spot wildlife, and enjoy a ride back to the starting point.
Begin your adventure in the beautiful Herman Creek Cove. Get comfortable with your kayak and explore the crystal-clear waters as you paddle a gentle inlet of Herman Creek toward an old fish hatchery.
From there, head out onto the Columbia River, staying near the shore and letting the wind of the gorge push you to your next cove while soaking up the majesty of this amazing river. The wind will blow you down to Government Cove, where a private and secluded cove full of wildlife awaits.
Pause for a water and snack break on the shore and get a chance to watch the birds soar over the water. After some more exploring of beautiful Government Cove, paddle to shore and hop on a 5-minute shuttle back to where you started.
