Paddle at Oxbow Bend<br />

Exceptionally scenic spot teeming with wildlife. Easy kayak rentals in Moose at Dornans. Duration: 1–4 hours, depending on<br />
how much you want to explore. Sunrise at Oxbow Bend is one of the most popular events in the park, and for good reason. Mt.<br />
Moran is particularly stunning in the morning light. For wildlife viewing, Oxbow Bend is one of the best places in the park, but its<br />
even better if you can explore it by water. The easiest access to the water level is around the back of the bend at a place known as<br />
Cattleman’s Bridge. Coming from the south, the road will be the first left after you pass the Oxbow Bend turnout. There are all sorts<br />
of little channels to explore, and lots to see. Moose, river otters, grizzly bears, beaver, and all types of waterfowl thrive here. The<br />
fishing is also pretty great. I think a person could spend the whole day on the water there and not get bored.<br />
