Ohio River Paddlefest takes place the first Saturday in August, with participants traveling up to nine miles through Downtown Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky in canoes, kayaks and other human-powered craft.

The Outdoors for All Expo, our Friday night Paddlefest pre-party, takes place at Schmidt Recreation Complex the Friday evening before the event. Free and open to the public, this celebration of all things outdoors features exhibits and hands-on demos from local parks, outdoor outfitters, adventure experts and environmentally minded organizations, plus live music, local beer and food trucks.

Ohio River Paddlefest is a project of Adventure Crew, a nonprofit dedicated to connecting city teens with nature and each other through outdoor adventures, like hiking, biking and kayaking. Find out more at www.adventurecrew.org
