6500.200 FLOWERING FOREST KAYAK TOUR Join Wanderlust Ecotours on a guided kayaking tour of the Mattabesset River in Cromwell. This stretch of the Mattabesset is a favorite among birders and naturalists. From your kayak, watch for great blue herons stalking prey on the riverbanks, belted kingfishers perched in the trees, or catch a glimpse of beavers swimming or painted turtles sunning themselves on logs. We’ll explore the river’s quiet beauty and learn about the dynamic natural systems that make this section of the Mattabesset a key link in Connecticut’s network of conserved waterways. This tributary of the Connecticut River winds through a protected landscape in Cromwell, offering paddlers a peaceful and scenic route with minimal current—perfect for observation and reflection.
