Paddle under the fountains with Taiter’s Kayak Solutions all Summer Long at RiverScape MetroPark. Regular walk-up rental hours will take place Thursdays, June- September from 4-8pm and launch from under the Riverside Bridge along the Great Miami Recreational Trail. The cost to participate is $10 per person per hour.
Kayak rentals are targeted at beginner and first-time paddlers. Those renting will not be permitted to go through the RiverScape RiverRun whitewater feature.
Visitors will receive at least one full hour of paddling in the Great Miami River. They can paddle in the river area from RiverScape MetroPark to Deeds Point MetroPark. If they choose, visitors also can paddle under the Five Rivers Fountain of Lights, which runs at the top of every hour.
Taiter’s Kayak Solutions staff will provide visitors with brief instruction prior to entering the water, which will include a safety tutorial, and help visitors get into their vessels.
All visitors will be required to wear a properly fitted lifejacket. The life jacket will be included with the rental, along with other safety equipment. Swimming is prohibited in the Great Miami River, but visitors should come prepared to get wet.
