Spend a fun-filled summer day floating lazily down the Niobrara River as it curves east past several interesting sights, including Heartland Elk Ranch. Six ecological systems come together and combine along the river so relax on your tube and admire the beauty of nature as you drift by.

Most of the Niobrara runs calm and fairly shallow, perfect for a relaxing day on the water, but if your preference is for the adventure of a swifter, deeper current with rapids, plan to canoe or kayak east of Sparks and prepare for an exciting ride.

The Niobrara River has been designated as a National Scenic River and is one of the top ten vacation destinations in Nebraska. The Niobrara has also been named one of the nation's top ten canoeing rivers by several different magazines and organizations.

Heartland Elk Ranch would like to arrange your river excursion, so come stay with us. We use the services of Dryland Aquatics in Sparks for canoe and tube rentals, and would be happy to provide a complete river experience.
