Get on the Water
We're improving access for waterway recreation. Now, grabbing your canoe and finding a place to paddle is much easier, thanks to the 94 river access locations made possible by WPC’s Canoe Access Development Fund (CADF). Learn how you can take advantage of great regional paddling trips that were improved with CADF grants.

Plan Your Adventure
Our interactive map highlights some canoe and kayak trips in our region and provides details on and locations of WPC-funded put-in and take-out sites.
Canoeing Guide
Our projects focus on streams in the region that people can canoe or kayak, with an emphasis on easier whitewater that is suitable for novice paddlers.
The best reference for identifying these types of streams remains the “Canoeing Guide to Western Pennsylvania and Northern West Virginia,” compiled and edited by Roy Weil and Mary Shaw, WPC members who established the CADF fund in 2008.
