About River Tours

Vermont River Conservancy has protected and restored more than 100 special places along Vermont’s rivers, wetlands, and headwater forests. Through River Tours, we invite communities to explore these landscapes, learn about local watersheds, and experience the importance of river conservation.

Join Us This Fall

From guided paddles and hikes to hands-on river clean-ups, and place-based art, our River Tour events offer opportunities to discover Vermont’s rivers and build relationships that support healthy waterways for generations to come.

This fall, explore the Memphremagog, Missisquoi, White, Poultney–Mettawee, Lamoille, and Upper Winooski watersheds with us. Every River Tour is a chance to learn, connect, and celebrate the rivers and places that make Vermont special.
