***Meeting location: Giving Pond Recreation Area, 1125 River Rd. (PA-32), Upper Black Eddy, PA 18972***

Come join a Delaware Canal State Park naturalist for a paddle on the Giving Pond to enjoy natures fireworks - fireflies! During this two hour paddle, you will learn paddling basics and spend time exploring the Giving Pond Recreation area at night. We'll listen and watch for animals that become active when the light begins to fade and learning all about those blinking butts! 

Use of single or tandem kayaks, paddles, and life jackets provided. Program may be cancelled or altered due to inclement weather. As this is an after-dark paddle program, please inquire before signing children up for this program.

  • Bathrooms: There is a port-o-john at the parking lot. 
  • Special Considerations: Please bring a headlamp if you have one - also, kayaking is a get-wet sport! Quick dry clothing will be the most comfortable.
