About us
The Rocky Mountain Paddling Centre has been instructing and guiding in the Calgary area for over 30 years. We have built our reputation around the highest quality programs that you can find. Our goal is to “Create an exciting learning experience in a safe and comfortable environment”. RMPC’s professional staff are a unique group of individuals who have two important qualities. One being their love of paddling, the second, their desire to share their skills and enthusiasm with other paddlers. Our nationally certified staff strive to provide an atmosphere that encourages learning, fun and safety.
We are committed to providing first class instruction, but also to excite you about the fun of paddling.
We offer rentals for canoes, kayaks, stand-up paddleboards (SUP) and rafts. Whether you’re planning a quiet float trip down the Bow River or a more adventurous trek we have you covered.
Our friendly and knowledgeable staff will make your rental experience enjoyable.
