Suwannee River Completely. This will be a little more challenging 7 or 8-day trip with 30 to 40-mile days.

Compulsive canoeists can paddle north then turn around so they can say they started at the beginning…” We’ve had 4 great trips in four years and hope to continue. Right now planning to do the Suwannee River again. It was a great trip and we’ve always wished we started at the very beginning of the river so here’s our chance… ** See our Past Trips section for more info on the Suwannee River including photos and very good contact/useful info. We will be doing it again but starting around 20 miles northeast of where we started last time.
