Boston Kayaker

Kayaking on Concord River - in Lowell MA Rating: One-and-a-Half Stars - This was a pleasant paddle trip. Padling time is 2 hours and 24 minutes. It was always a satisfactory paddle whenever I reached a natural end point (the Middlesex Falls) to mark my turn around on a round trip. It was a cloudy morning so the pictures are not as cheery and sunny.   Put in at Lawrence Street   in Lowell MA. Paddle upriver   and return. Estimated round trip   distance = 7+ miles Lowell   Dam Middlesex   Falls Middlesex Canal   Museum Disclaimer: It is your responsibility to determine the legality, suitability and safety of this route for yourself.
