Broken Paddle Guiding

Kayak, SUP, Fat Bike - It's Going to be a Great Year of Adventuring!

We want to make sure everyone in the tourism industry down along the Mississippi and Lake Pepin gets the skinny on what we are up to this year.  We have a few new things going on, like rentals -  kayaks, stand up paddleboards, and fat bikes are for rent this year, we have new tours - like our SUP tour, our customizable large group tour, and our inn to inn cycle tour.  

Yes, we know that's quite a bit, but just like you we're passionate about the beauty of our region and being able to share that with others.  So check out what we have going on, call or email anytime with questions or better yet, join us for a paddle.

Looking forward to a great season,
Michael Anderson, Owner/Guide Broken Paddle Guiding
