Join in and enjoy our Thursday Paddle Floats down the Great Miami River. Paddle down our local waterway from West Carrollton to downtown Miamisburg. It's a relaxing 5.5 mile "moving water" trail through the urban wilderness. This trip usually takes between 1-1/2 and 2 hours. If you've never seen the river from this perspective, you're in for a treat. You'll have a good chance to spot various wildlife including great blue herons, beavers, red-tailed hawks and more. Afterwards, stop in at one of the local downtown Miamisburg restaurants.
