4-Hour Kayak on Yellowstone Lake with Lunch
686timmyr
A kayak paddle on Yellowstone Lake is a great way to start the day before moving on to afternoon activities. We begin the tour at 10AM to beat the wind and waves that can form later in the day. Launching in the evening can be quite dangerous. Safety is our priority. Your kayak instructor will provide a safety briefing and introduce you to the kayaks and paddle strokes. The tours have a ratio of 6-guests-to-1-guide. The minimum age to join is 14. Once underway, we journey from the Grant Village Marina to the West Thumb Geyser Basin. The sight of the steaming geyser basin forms a lifelong memory. Enjoy the big mountain views of the Absaroka Range across the lake. Getting out on the water is a unique way to experience the Park. Our tours are fun! But, we also have a passion for the Park and enjoy sharing information about the flora, fauna, and history of the region. Tours include morning hot drinks and light snacks, as well as lunch on an off the beaten path beach.
