Paddle Social - Wabash River (Wells County)
Location County Road 301 Vera Cruz, IN
We invite you to join us for our May Paddle Social!!
Location: CR 301 (SW Center St) approximately 0.25 miles north of CR 116 just over the bridge on the west side of the road.
Total Miles: Two options. a) 4.3 miles or b) 6.4 miles.
Estimate paddle time: a) 2 - 2.5 hours or b) 3.5 - 4 hours
We will put in at the bridge just south of Vera Cruz. This is the site the Wells County Trails will be improving later this year!! We will paddle through the awesome Oubache State Park and you have the option to take out at the White Bridge Picnic Area near the intersection of S 450 E and River Rd. You may decide to keep going and paddle through more forested river banks until we get closer to Bluffton when we will start to see signs of human life again, and take out at the Main Street bridge in Bluffton.
This will be an awesome paddle as Bald Eagles are often observed along the Wabash River as well as Great Blue Herons, turtles, and more!
