Stand-up Paddle (SUP) boarding has quickly become an incredibly popular way to enjoy the water. Take a stable surfboard, add a large canoe paddle, and you end up with a recreational watercraft that can be used in oceans, lakes or rivers. With more physical freedom, less gear and a fast learning curve, it’s easy to see why the sport has such high appeal.
Wilderness Voyageurs is your Ohiopyle and Youghiogheny source for Paddleboard rentals. We offer river-specific paddleboards to learn the basics and get you up and paddling.
Already have SUP experience and just need to rent a board? We have paddleboards available for $35 per day. Rental includes paddle and lifejacket (PFD). Reservations are recommended. Pick up your board at our Ohiopyle Outfitter Store, adjacent to the railroad tracks. You will need tie-down straps if transporting on roof racks. The Yough Lake is the best destination for an afternoon of lake boarding. It is about 11 miles to the closest launch on Yough Lake, just outside of the town of Confluence. If you have experience in moving water and are up for a workout, the Middle Yough, a class I-II section of river is also an option. This section of river is 9 miles, so it is a pretty big day of paddling. We highly reccomend that if you want to SUP the Middle Yough, that you do it with a group of folks with multiple crafts so that you can switch out who is paddle boarding.
SUP board rentals can be reserved by calling our reservations office at 800-272-4141, they are not available to reserve online.
