Higher Pursuits is located just minutes from downtown Columbia, TN and features canoe and kayak trips on the beautiful and scenic Duck River.
The Duck River winds its way through Maury County, the Yanahli Wildlife Management Area and the Duck River State Natural Area. This makes all our routes feel remote and unobstructed by houses and roads. There are gorgeous gravel bars, rock bluffs and beautiful scenery throughout. All of our paddling routes are an easygoing Class I with very few swift spots. As a state scenic river, the Duck River is one of the most biologically diverse rivers in North America and is host to an amazing variety of freshwater mussels, otters, beavers, mink, muskrat and over 120 species of fish.
Our goal is to connect you with the natural wonder of the river while providing great service, quality equipment and a family friendly environment. In addition to renting canoes and kayaks, we also provided guided trips on the Duck River, teach kayaking and canoeing classes, and provide other outdoor recreation opportunities.
