Paddle down some of the most tranquil and picturesque rivers in the South West

OPEN CANOEING

Open Canoes allow so many possibilities. Whether you want a gentle paddle down some of the most tranquil and picturesque rivers in the South West, or a floating platform for jumping in the water and playing fabulous games with friends, open canoeing provides it all.


The boats are stable, making falling out an effort, yet great fun to tip, if that's what you want. Because there is often two people in a canoe it's very easy to control. You could have a day trip down a river, really going somewhere, or an exciting day and go nowhere at all. Open canoeing really is a sport for all.

Sessions start with your instructor explaining how to use the paddle, how to work with your partner, as well as what happens if the canoe tips over. Once on the water the instructor will tailor the session to your requirements mixing games with coaching. If you would like to take canoeing further we can arrange day trips on the River Wye or River Avon; we can also arrange longer expeditions, camping out en-route.
