You do not need to bring your own kayaks but your kids do need to be at least 10 years old. We recommend you visit http://www.paddlelariver.org for more information. Good luck and enjoy your trip down the LA River next year!

While the Los Angeles River is now considered a navigable waterway, you can’t go into the river without an official permit from the US Army Corps. Currently, recreational boating is not allowed on the river and those caught on the river without a permit may be cited. I would recommend contacting Paddle the LA River at http://www.paddlelariver.org to talk to someone about when recreational boating may be allowed on the LA River.

My husband and I own a canoe. Are private parties now allowed to paddle in the Sepulveda Basin area and if not, do you have any idea when this will be permissible?
