Fly-In Canoe
Trips
This is the ultimate wilderness canoe trip! Grab
your gear and hop into a floatplane for your flight over the canoe
country. See the wilderness through the eyes of an eagle as you soar
over miles of uninhabited lakes and forest. After you touch down, your
gear is placed into your Kevlar canoe ready to explore. Then head
out for 5 to 7 or more days of exploration into some of the most
picturesque, "fish-filled" areas of the Northwoods. This is the
ultimate adventure.
IMPORTANT:
You must have and bring your Passport to take a
fly-in or fly-out canoe
trip.

Fly-in Canoe Trips |
 Below
is information about taking a fly-in canoe trip. Fly-in
trips can be in Minnesota's Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA) or
Canada's Quetico Provincial Park. All flights will land on a
lake in Canada (shown on the map below) and you will begin your
trip from there. Both wilderness areas have their own rules
and fees. In either case (a BWCA trip or a Quetico trip) we
will reserve your entry permit and make all the trip arrangements
for your group.
