Q&A
A: Yes, there are age restrictions. Typically, participants need to be at least 12 years old to paddle on their own. Kids younger than that can go with an adult on the same board. Just check with Kayak the Gorge when you book to confirm!
A: If the weather doesn't cooperate, they usually reach out to you in advance to reschedule. It’s best to keep an eye on the forecast, especially since conditions can change quickly in the Gorge!
A: Absolutely! There’s plenty of parking at the launch site near Cascade Locks. Just make sure to arrive a bit early, especially on weekends, since it can get busy!

Just did the Columbia River Gorge paddle - Amazing experience!
I just got back from the Columbia River Gorge Stand Up Paddle Experience and it was incredible! The water was super clear, and we saw a bunch of wildlife, including some majestic ospreys. It’s only about 50 minutes from Portland, which is perfect for a quick getaway. I had never paddle boarded before, but the team from Kayak the Gorge was so friendly and made it easy. Definitely recommend it as a gift for any nature lovers!
Thinking about gifting this paddleboarding experience!
I wanna get my brother something unique for his birthday and the Columbia River Gorge paddle experience looks perfect! It’s right by Hood River and the wildlife sounds amazing. Has anyone done this? What should I know?
