4-Hour Morning Kayak on Yellowstone Lake with Lunch

4-Hour Morning Kayak on Yellowstone Lake with Lunch

Overview

A morning paddle on Yellowstone Lake is a good way to start the day. We depart early to beat the strong wind that can form later in the day. Also morning is the best time of the day to spot wildlife. Your kayak instructor will brief you on what to expect and acquaint your group with the kayaks and kayak paddle strokes. After we get underway, we will journey from the Grant Village Marina to the West Thumb Geyser Basin. The sight of the steaming geyser basin is sure to make lifetime memories. There are big mountain views of the Absaroka Range across the vast lake. This is family adventure travel at its best. Splashy, yet safe. Scenic, yet adventurous. A workout, yet playful. Please, come enjoy a day on the waters of Yellowstone Lake.

The paddle takes place in the West Thumb of Yellowstone Lake. We paddle near the lake shore and sometimes encounter wildlife like bear or elk as we paddle the two miles toward the West Thumb Geyser Basin.

West Thumb Geyser Basin

View one of Yellowstone's fabled geyser basins from the comfort of your kayak. Paddle near thermal features and see the geysers from a whole new angle.

Our guide was great. We were upset we got back an hour early because others in the party thought it was a race and wouldn’t just take the time to enjoy the scenery. We had a sack lunch after which was ok.

Kayaking on Yellowstone Lake early in the morning was the perfect way to start our day. The lake was absolutely gorgeous and the water was still. We were able to kayak near several geysers and Josh was very knowledgeable about the geography and biology of the area. We ended the tour with a satisfying lunch on the lakeshore. I would highly recommend this tour!
