You will be amazed by the Alaskan scenery as you paddle through ice, hear the glaciers calving, and watch sea lions play in the icy cold water. If fishing is your thing, get a $30 fishing license and feast on some Alaskan Salmon for dinner!<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re headed this way be sure to check out some <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alaska.org\/advice\/prince-william-sound-kayak-itineraries\">itineraries<\/a> for all levels of experience.<\/p>\n<h5>Lake Tahoe, California &amp; Nevada<\/h5>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1698\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/lake-tahoe.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"939\" height=\"625\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/lake-tahoe.png 939w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/lake-tahoe-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/lake-tahoe-768x511.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 939px) 100vw, 939px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Paddle along the 72-mile shoreline of the freshwater Lake Tahoe, nestled in the Sierra Nevada Mountain. Stop at one of the 29 beaches for a picnic and breathe in that fresh mountain-piney air. You will feel like you\u2019re in the Wild West with the Mountains as a backdrop and that laid-back west coast lifestyle. Stay a couple nights to spend your days paddling and the nights exploring the small surrounding towns. Maybe even take a hike up into the mountains to get a bird\u2019s eye view of Lake Tahoe!<\/p>\n<h5>Colorado River<\/h5>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1699\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Grand-canyon.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"939\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Grand-canyon.png 939w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Grand-canyon-300x240.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Grand-canyon-768x613.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 939px) 100vw, 939px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is the river that truly has it all. Waterfalls, mountains, lakes, towering canyons, hot springs, dams, and white-waters can all be found throughout this long stretch. Crashing down the Rocky Mountains and eventually forming the Grand Canyon and Lake Maed, there are over 1,450 miles of river to paddle along. Spend days on end seeing its sights from start to finish, or pick a section based on your skill level. Be aware that some sections of the River require a permit.<\/p>\n<h5>Lake Chelan, Washington<\/h5>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1700\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1700\" style=\"width: 2121px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1700\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/ThinkstockPhotos-485395518-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2121\" height=\"1414\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/ThinkstockPhotos-485395518-1.jpg 2121w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/ThinkstockPhotos-485395518-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/ThinkstockPhotos-485395518-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/ThinkstockPhotos-485395518-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/ThinkstockPhotos-485395518-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/ThinkstockPhotos-485395518-1-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2121px) 100vw, 2121px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1700\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lake Chelan sunrise from Stehekin, Washington.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>This narrow lake stretches for 50.5 miles along the base of the North Cascades mountain range in Washington, three hours northeast of Seattle. Another beautiful lake nestled in mountains, you will feel tranquil &#8211; outside the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Spend the day on the lake without a single building in sight. Camp along the shore and throw your fishing pole in for some dinner as you bask in the beauty of Washington\u2019s amazing mountain terrain.<\/p>\n<h5>Juniper Run, Florida<\/h5>\n<h5><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1701\" style=\"font-size: 16px;\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/juniper-run.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"939\" height=\"625\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/juniper-run.png 939w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/juniper-run-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/juniper-run-768x511.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 939px) 100vw, 939px\" \/><\/h5>\n<p>This 7 mile narrow stretch of crystal clear water twists and turns under a dense canopy of Florida Forest. With only a few places to stop and a somewhat technical route, this run is best for experienced paddlers. Don\u2019t be surprised if you spot black bears, deer, otters, and racoons. And just before arriving at Wayside Park, the creek widens out in wetlands &#8211; a great place to spot alligators and birds!<\/p>\n<h5>Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, Minnesota<\/h5>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1702\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/boundary-waters.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"939\" height=\"610\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/boundary-waters.png 939w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/boundary-waters-300x195.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/boundary-waters-768x499.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 939px) 100vw, 939px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Likely one of the most popular paddling places in the States, the Boundary Waters Canoe Area consists of 1.1 million acres of lakes that stretch between the United States and Canada.
