Kayak the Pere Marquette. The Pere Marquette River is a designated National Scenic River that flows from near Baldwin, MI to Ludington where it enters Lake Michigan. We will be paddling a stretch of this beautiful river from the Upper Branch Bridge to the Walhalla Bridge through the Manistee National Forest. This river has fast current that can lead to some tricky paddling so it is not recommended for first time paddlers. Fee: $39/$31 for Friends of DeGraaf. Please register.
