    Join us in the Canoe Capital of Virginia for an exhilarating day on the water! With its friendly outfitters, crystal-clear waters, and abundant wildlife, Front Royal is the perfect place to embrace your sense of Adventure.

    This year we are moving the event to Bentonville and the original location of the canoe races that were held in the 70's and 80's. The marathon distance has been tweaked to 10-miles. The Paddle Palooza is also running in conjunction with the Bluebell Festival held at Shenandoah River State Park so once you have finished your paddle, you can head next door to the park and enjoy the festival and check out the amazing bluebell trail.

    Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned paddler, there's a race for everyone! Test your endurance in the 750m out-and-back sprint, where flat water makes it ideal for newcomers and anyone looking to dip their paddle into water sports for the first time. Feel the energy from the cheering crowds lining the riverbank, giving you that extra boost to cross the finish line!

    For those craving a bigger challenge, tackle the long-distance 10-mile race along one of the most stunning stretches of the South Fork of the Shenandoah River. Surrounded by breathtaking views and fast-flowing water, this race is an adventure you won’t want to miss. Keep your paddle moving as you navigate this peaceful yet powerful section of the river – no time to fish here!

    Join us for a day full of excitement, community, and fun! Not a paddler? No problem! Come down to cheer on the competitors and experience the vibrant atmosphere this event brings to our town. Don’t miss out on this unforgettable community celebration!

    Get ready for a day of heart-pumping fun, friendly competition, and natural beauty. Register now and see why Front Royal is the ultimate destination for canoe lovers!
