Sunset Paddle at Elk State Park

Meet our DCNR staff at the Instanter Boat Launch at Elk State Park. Learn the basics of kayaking and water safety before going out for a paddle on the East Branch Clarion River Lake. Low water levels may give visitors the opportunity to see debris and foundations from the old town of Instanter. Participants should be prepared to get wet, and bring along any water, snacks, or sunblock they may need while on the water. Participants must be 12 years of age, and minors must be accompanied by an adult. Kayaks, paddles, and PDFs will be provided free of charge. Spots are limited, so participants must pre-register by contacting the park office at (814)778-5467.
