Wildlands Conservancy’s 30th Annual Lehigh River Sojourn

Overview

Wildlands Conservancy’s 30th Annual Lehigh River Sojourn – June 19 – 21, 2026. Join us for 1, 2, or all 3 days! Paddle and pedal your way into Summer on our guided adventure: canoe, kayak, paddleboard, and bike the metro-wilderness reaches of the Lehigh River in the Lehigh Valley, including whitewater rafting through the Lehigh Gorge in the Poconos. Sojourners are treated to scenic views, visits from resident wildlife, and a shared appreciation for the lifeblood of our region — our mighty and beloved Lehigh River!

Each day boasts a different get-outdoors adventure on the water with unique views and experiences: Day 1 – Sand Island to Rt. 33, Boat Launch, Easton; Day 2 – Walnutport to Weissport; Day 3 – Drakes Creek to Glen Onoko. This year’s river adventure includes educational programming from our neighbors in conservation and environmental education, camping at various parks, and special events.
