The best way to get into the tube was to wade a little way in the river, grab both handles and sit back into the tube. We had a couple of close calls but no one fell in the river.

It’s approx. a 15-min ride on the bus to the launch point. You then float down the river to Chillin' N Tubing’s site; back to where the cars are parked.

The Chillin' N Tubing crew will tether your tubes together if you want. We tethered around the cooler tube and it looked like a Daisy. The only downside is that someone was always facing backwards.

We made a couple of stops to swim in the Vermillion River. It took us 3 ½ hours to float down the river. Make sure to bring drinks (non-alcoholic), snacks, hats & sunscreen with you. Water shoes are not necessary but recommended.

It’s approximately a 30-min drive North of Sudbury to Chillin' N Tubing near Chelmsford. The road was well-signed and the last part, on gravel, was fairly smooth.

The Porta Potties (washrooms) were fairly clean, even at the end of the day.

It was approximately a 15-min ride to the launch point on Vermillion River. The roads were a little rough but, the bus driver handled it well. Watch out for the tree branches!!!

The Chillin' N Tubing crew brought the tubes and paddles in a trailer and handed them out at the river launch point. Everyone had a stamp so they knew which tubes to give out.

Once we were in our tubes, it was a relaxing float down the river. Unlike Elora Gorge, there are no rapids on this river. It’s the same relaxing pace all the way.

My 86-year-old Grandmother enjoyed the afternoon float. It’s a gentle current floating us down the river near Chelmsford, Ontario.

There were many sandy beaches along the banks of the Vermillion River to stop and have a picnic or stop for a swim.

About two-thirds of the way down the river, there’s a washroom (porta-potty) at a beach.

t was easy to see the end point of our float. The Chillin' N Tubing buildings were easily seen as we came around the last turn in the river and the staff was on hand to help us out of the tubes.
