Highlights
Outing Highlights
Paddling Through Peak Fall Color
The core draw is the foliage itself: vivid maples and birches lining Moore Reservoir, with mountains and serene water composing long, scenic vistas best seen from a kayak.
Shoreline Lanes and Open Water
The tour follows the same paddle as the Moore Reservoir Tour, moving between sheltered shoreline corridors and broader open-water stretches that reveal the surrounding peaks in color.
A Focused Two‑Hour Immersion
Designed as a two‑hour guided outing, the trip offers a concentrated, accessible exposure to autumn on the reservoir — long enough to absorb changing vistas but short enough for a single afternoon.
What the day feels like
On the Water
After meeting at the reservoir launch, paddlers board kayaks for a guided circuit of Moore Reservoir. The flow alternates calm, close-to-shore sightseeing with stretches of open water that expand views of the mountains; instruction and safety briefings are part of the outing so all ages can enjoy the scenery from the water.
