About the Event and Club
BLK Hiking Club events are intended for Black people unless otherwise stated due to the limited options that exist for Black people to engage in the outdoors where we can easily see and engage with others who look like us and share our experiences.
While we appreciate the work of allies, they are encouraged to join one of the many other hiking groups in the Triangle.
About the Event
We will begin kayaking with a tutorial for beginners so everyone can feel confident on the water. Once the tutorial is finished, you can paddle around the lake at your own pace. Lake Crabtree does not have rapids, so you don't have to worry about turbulent waters while kayaking.
All kayakers are required to wear a life jacket while on the water. Children must be at least 16 years old to kayak.
Lake Crabtree County Park offers free single kayak, double kayak, canoe, pedal boat, and stand-up paddle board rentals on a first come, first served basis for 2 hours of use. You will be able to add your name to a waiting list if there are no rentals available when you arrive. You will need a government ID to get a rental.
While waiting, there is a greenspace near the boathouse where you can lounge until your rental is available.
