Canoe

A Canoe is a boat that can be made by members to allow faster transportation on the River Lum. You need to use the woodcutting skill to make them. Hari can teach you about canoes.

How to make canoes
To make a canoe you need a hatchet. Then, find a canoe tree. These trees can be found at canoe stations, and appear larger and leafless compared to regular trees. These stations are located in the following places.
 * Lumbridge: On the east side of the river a bit south of the house where Goblins respawn. Barfy Bill is at this canoe station.
 * Champions' Guild: On the east side of the river west of the wheat field. Tarquin is at this canoe station.
 * Barbarian Village: South of the eastern bridge on the east side of the river. Sigurd is at this canoe station.
 * Edgeville: On the east side of the river near the guard post and the grand exchange shortcut. Hari is at this canoe station.
 * Level 35 Wilderness: At the lake south of the Moss Giants. To go back run south until you reach bandit camp, then go west until you go to level 20 wildy. If you have a tele of some sort use it. If you don't run south east until you reach the wildy border and jump over it. (Try to avoid revenants) Players cannot return by canoe from this station, as there is no canoe tree. You cannot teleport from here, due to its depth in the wilderness.

When the player has found a canoe tree at one of these stations they must cut the tree down. The player has to click on the fallen tree and select what type of canoe they want to make. When they've made the canoe they want, they can click on the canoe to push it in the river. When in the river, the player can click on the canoe and select where they want to go. You can not take a canoe if you have a familiar.

Canoes can only go to a certain number of stations away, before sinking (Note that this only happens when players exit a canoe, and not while they're sitting in it). Higher level canoes can go farther than lower level canoes. It's recommended that players make the highest canoe they can make, as this helps train Woodcutting. A uncommon but efficient way of training woodcutting is by making waka's and traveling back and forth. (For maximum XP profit, use an Inferno Adze or Dragon Hatchet

Trivia

 * The "Waka" canoe is the only canoe that can travel into the wilderness. This makes it very useful for accessing certain Treasure Trail locations.
 * Previously, an animation as seen on the picture to the right was used, but it has since been removed. When going to most locations you'd seen grassy shores with bullrushes, while going to the Wilderness pond you'd see the canoe paddle in a cave.


 * When you have travelled to a station, 'A Sinking Canoe' appears and if you examine it, it will say, "Glug, glug ,glug".
 * Waka means Canoe in Māori.
 * In the old wilderness, people returning to clan events in the deep wilderness would use canoes from their Lumbridge respawn point.
