2026 SUMMER PADDLE SEASON
Friends of Dragon Run (FODR) welcomes you to one of the most beautiful rivers in Virginia. We are dedicated to preserving this waterway and want to show you how special it is. In the Summer, the Dragon Run swamp is particularly beautiful with flowers (especially the pickerelweed, spatterdock, buttonbush, and swamp rose). Though the air may be hot, the water is cool. This season we are expecting to offer a new venue for our paddle trip from a newly acquired property downstream of the Teta Kain Nature Preserve. We thank you for your interest in Dragon Run and look forward to meeting you on the day of your paddle trip.
