Blue River Trips

Milltown to Rothrock Mill:

This trip is approximately 12 miles and can take from 3 to 6 hours depending on the water level and paddler enthusiasms. When the water is lower (under 2.5 feet) there are plenty of sandbars to pull over and picnic. This is a good trip with several areas of ripples and plenty of deep swimming holes but can become crowded during the season. Pull out is marked with a large sign at the mill/DNR access point.

Rothrock Mill to Blue River Chapel:

This trip is approximately 13 miles and can take up to 6 hours to complete. This is my favorite trip on the Blue River due to almost constant ripples and plenty of seclusion. The river really twists and turns through Crawford County's hill country. These turns provide plenty of ripples and great fishing for bass and sauger.

Blue River Chapel to Old Iron Bridge:

This is about 8 miles long and can be shortened to around 6 miles by putting in at Stagestop Campground. This trip can be done in 4 hours or less and is also very scenic and secluded. If you are looking for quiet and beauty this is a great trip for you. A few ripples will keep things exciting and provide some great fishing opportunities.

These are the different trips available on the Blue River. Overnight trips can be planned in advance by combining these trips.

White River Trip

Shoals to Hindostan Falls:

This is a 16 mile trip and should only be considered if you really love being on the water for over 6 hours. If you are that type of paddler then you will experience a great section of this Indiana river. Great scenery, fishing, wildlife, and the falls at the pullout provide a great river experience. Bring your fishing pole for catfish, bluecats, perch, small mouth, and drum as you make the run. Watch out for the huge jumping carp, they can knock you out of the boat (no kidding). A fun run with water flowing year round.

River Trip rates: River trips are $35.00 for a single person boat and $25.00 per person (2 person minimum) for a tandem kayak.

Our Tandem kayaks can carry three small adults or teens, or two large adults and a child easily. They are very stable and offer a lot of fun for families and teens. We offer group discounts, call in advance for those rates.

Patoka Lake

We will meet you at any of these designated areas including the park's small boat ramp with the all the equipment. Call us for some suggested places to go on the lake.

What you can do on an AquaScapes Adventure at Patoka Lake:
