For the taster sessions you will learn efficient paddling techniques and how to control your canoe or kayak and some fun water based games.

  • Full day intro sessions can be in either canoe or kayak or a mixture of both

For for those wishing to further their skills in Canoeing and Kayaking or to broaden their moving water skills, we have the Introduction to Whitewater course. The aim of these courses are to introduce paddlers that already have some experience on flat water their first taste of white water and build their confidence in grade 2/3 rivers.
