The Waypoint Canoeing program will give you access to some of New England's most beautiful lakes, rivers, and coastline. Enjoy the fun and serenity of the water all while being part of a supportive community. Benefit from the wide array of adaptive canoeing equipment designed to meet your individual needs. Our highly trained staff will instruct, support, and encourage you as you learn new skills or further develop your existing ones. All canoeing programs will be custom designed to fit the needs of you and/or your group. 

Instructors: Oscar (617-520-4534), Catie (617-453-8838), Eileen (617-544-7116)

Location/Directions: Do not park in the general parking area for Walden Pond. It costs money to park there. Instead use the address listed (1000 Walden Street Lincoln, MA) as an estimate and look for a brown gate that leads to a boat ramp. The coordinates for the boat ramp are 42.438466, -71.333571. If you are coming from Rt. 2, turn onto Walden St (Rt 126). You will pass the entrance to the paid parking lot on your left, then the visitor's center also on your left. After that begin looking for a brown gate on your right to turn down for the boat ramp. Look for green Waypoint signs and give us a call if you need further instructions.

Conditions: Walden Pond is a calm pond with a gradual slope to the canoe launch. The parking lot is compact gravel/sand and the beach near the water is sand. At times rain may have washed away some of the parking lot and boat ramp.

Bathrooms: There will be an accessible porta potty at the boat launch.

What to bring:

• Water bottle
• Sandals with a heel strap or sneakers that you don't mind getting wet
• Sunglasses with a strap
• Sunscreen
• Hat
