Kayak on the Siltcoos River - gear, transportation, and guides included! The Siltcoos is located south of Florence in the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area. The Siltcoos is relatively flat and a fun way to experience one of the largest expanses of temperate coastal sand dunes in the world. The river is three miles long and a designated canoe trail. We’ll be keeping our eyes open for otters and a variety of birds. Bring water, snacks, lunch, and dress in layers. Come prepared for the weather. This trip is with the River House Outdoor Center in Eugene. Please meet at 9 am at 301 N. Adams St., Eugene, to take care of pre-trip logistics. We will return to Eugene by 5:30 pm. The price is $55 per person (please bring cash or check), payable to the River House on the morning of the trip. We will be riding on a small bus to the Siltcoos.
