In partnership with Friends of the Chicago River, the Garden invites you to participate in a rare opportunity to canoe the lakes of the Chicago Botanic Garden. Herons, ducks, small fish, and maybe even a few turtles and frogs will greet you as we explore their watery habitat. No experience with canoeing is necessary; instruction, canoes, life jackets, and paddles are all provided.
Please choose one of the scheduled start times. You’ll enjoy a full hour canoeing the lakes of the Garden. Children must be at least 5 years old to participate. The fee is per boat, with a maximum of three participants per boat.
