Bring your SUP, kayak, canoe, tandem, or prone and join The Explore Kentucky Initiative and Stand Up Paddle Cincinnati for the biggest event in the Kentucky Waterman Series at the Ohio River Paddlefest.

Racers will be a part of the nation's largest paddling celebration, leading over 2,200 recreational paddlers down a closed course on the Ohio River, passing through downtown Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky.

Race entry includes all Ohio River Paddlefest perks, like free shuttles, and invitation to the Paddler's Party on Friday, August 2. 

All proceeds from Paddlefest, including the races, support Adventure Crew and their work with 22 schools and 1,000+ city teens, exposing them to regular outdoor recreation at no-cost to students.
