Canoeing and kayaking can be a fun and unique way to experience the Jordan River. Like any sport, there are risks involved and it is the responsibility of the boater to ensure their own safety while enjoying this natural resource. Several natural and man-made hazards exist along the river, some of which have cost people their lives. It is important to scout out your route before attempting to paddle the river, and to know where and when to exit the river safely. The water trail map can be viewed at here.
