Trip Overview

Recommended for beginners, our shortest trip starts at Constable Bridge and ends at the Mullica River Canoe Landing. This 2 mile trip takes about 1.5 to 2 hours. You’ll begin by passing underneath Constable bridge, then winding your way down the Mullica River. This is a very peaceful stretch of pine barrens, free of any roads or development. You will pass by several sandy “beaches” along the way. These beaches are the perfect to post up with your family and friends to have lunch or hang out!  Your trip will end just after you pass under route 542 and pull into the Mullica River Canoe Landing for pick up. Guests of Jersey Devil Adventures will receive a discount if dining at the Sweetwater Riverdeck (Open Thursday - Sunday) after their trip!

Please Note: Although this trip is one of the best options for novice paddlers, all of our excursions can present challenges due to varying river conditions and the participants skill level.
