We all love a summer moment where we can cruise down the river with our besties in tow. Spend a few hours on the river with The Paddle Station, and rent a raft or kayak to indulge in Calgary’s skyline from the water. The best part, they bring the raft or kayak right to you, so there’s no need to lug a raft in your rental car.
