A morning paddle on Yellowstone Lake is a great way to start the day before moving on to afternoon activities. Morning is the best time of day to spot wildlife.

We begin the tour at 8AM to beat the wind and waves that can form later in the day. Safety is our priority.

Your kayak instructor will provide a safety briefing and introduce you to the kayaks and paddle strokes. The tours have a ratio of 6-guests-to-1-guide. The minimum age to join is 14.

Once underway, we journey from the Grant Village Marina to the West Thumb Geyser Basin, weather permitting. The sight of the steaming geyser basin forms a lifelong memory. Enjoy the big mountain views of the Absaroka Range across the lake. Getting out on the water is a unique way to experience the Park.

Our tours are fun! But we also have a passion for the Park and enjoy sharing information about the flora, fauna, and history of the region.

Please, come enjoy a day on the waters of Yellowstone Lake with Yellowstone Hiking Guides.

The paddle takes place in the West Thumb of Yellowstone Lake. We kayak near the lake shore and sometimes encounter wildlife like bear or elk as we paddle the six miles toward the West Thumb Geyser Basin. We turn around at Potts Geyser Basin, which cannot be seen from the road. See geysers, hot springs, waterfowl, fish and more on our morning kayak tour.

West Thumb Geyser Basin

See West Thumb Geyser Basin from the water. Avoiding the crowded boardwalks, we see thermal features bubbling up from the lake bottom and water falling from the Abyss and Black Pools. We often see shorebirds nesting in the unique thermal features and floating around the hot waters.

In my opinion this is pretty much for everyone, my sister and I are in our 60's, never been in a kayak, however, we still managed to paddle twice as far as the rest of the group due to not being able to paddle in a straight line! Emily and Josh were wonderful, patient and encouraging hosts. A great way to see Yellowstone lake, thankyou so much for this exceptional experience.
Great experience

This kayaking trip was great. The company provided hot drinks and an energy bar before starting. Then we paddled about half an hour before stopping for a rest. Next we paddled past several thermal features getting a unique view from the shore. On the way back we paddled at a leisurely pace. Once again on shore we had a generous lunch. Our guide, Oliver, was very friendly and knowledgeable.
Excellent experience!

I want to thank Josh for the kayak trip, he was knowledgeable and great conversationalist. The lunches were fantastic and fresh, and we couldn’t eat all the food they provided. This is a smaller touring company that keeps things at a personal level and you could tell they he loved his job! Thanks.
