Click on a region below for a partial list of North American Water Trails, which includes coastal trails, wilderness lake and river routes, and urban arteries. There is no governing body that defines what a water trail is, so the trails listed here vary in length and the level of access to launches and campsites. Some are managed by branches of government, and others by non-profit organizations. You will be able to visit each trails website for more information.

If you represent a water trail, please email at ann@seakayakermag.com. We list only those water trails that have information available about them on the web. URLs are required.
