As we approach the meat and potatoes of summer’s “dog days,” many travellers hope to spend more time on the water. After all, hot and humid weather always seems more tolerable when you’re splashing around! Thankfully, Bakers Narrows provides guests seemingly unfettered access to Lake Athapapuskow and other rugged waterways. Kayaking in Manitoba is a unique experience on which all outdoor enthusiasts should embark, and the heart of the Canadian Shield offers the perfect place.

Kayaking Manitoba | Lake Athapapuskow and Beyond

By now, it’s no secret that Northern Manitoba offers a world-class fishing experience exemplified by tranquillity and scenic beauty. As such, the aspects that make our neck of the woods desirable for angling also lend themselves to an unrivalled kayaking adventure. Immaculate waterbodies, combined with sprawling woodlands, create an ideal environment for those seeking an escape from the daily grind. There are a few different kayaking packages to choose from at Bakers Narrows, but you can also set out on a solo expedition closer to home by floating along Lake Athapapuskow. 

Self-Guided Manitoba Kayaking Excursions

One of our favourite kayaking tours starts in the crystal clear waters of Wabishkok Lake, where you’ll eventually meet Mikanagan Falls. This gentle float consists of three total lakes, is self-guided, and safe for all skill levels. Another self-guided option that we mentioned above is touring Lake Athapapuskow with a route map featuring various points of interest along the way. No matter how you slice it, there are several fantastic opportunities that don’t require guidance! We have top-rated day touring kayaks and fishing kayaks available for use around the lodge.
