Wildlife and Team Building Paddle | 6 Mile

☀️ Greenbelt Wildlife Paddle & Outdoor Adventure Series
Questions? Text Us 469-806-7400
Six miles of winding river, towering trees, hidden wildlife, and one of the most scenic paddling corridors in North Texas.
The Greenbelt isn't just another paddle. It's a chance to slow down, disconnect from the noise, and spend a few hours floating through a river ecosystem that feels surprisingly far from the city. Along the way you'll pass sandy beaches, shaded bends, historic landmarks, and some of the best wildlife viewing opportunities in the region.
Whether you're joining us for the June Wildlife Paddle or the July Outdoor Adventure Expo, every trip offers a different story.
