World Fish Migration Day Paddle

Join Us On the Clyde River!

Join Vermont River Conservancy and NorthWoods Stewardship Center for a paddle on the Clyde River in celebration of World Fish Migration Day! This global celebration, held every two years, raises awareness about the importance of migratory fish and free-flowing rivers—bringing people, rivers, and communities together.

Come connect with the river and learn about the conservation initiatives led by Vermont River Conservancy and NorthWoods Stewardship Center in support of fish migration and thriving ecosystems–all while enjoying the scenic wildlife-rich wetlands and riparian habitats the Clyde offers.

This event is free and open to all—no paddling experience required. We’ll be paddling on a calm section of the river, making it perfect for beginners and experienced paddlers alike.

Come paddle, learn, and celebrate World Fish Migration Day on the Clyde River with us!
