Outdoor Activities for Schools and Youth Groups Canoeing • Kayaking • Climbing • Abseiling • Caving • Wayfaring

Canoeing and Kayaking River Trip An excellent day out and a favourite with our school and youth groups! Ideal for beginners and those with a little more experience alike, we use open canoes and/or touring kayaks to explore the scenic river Wye and its abundant wildlife. After a short lesson on the basic paddling strokes we set off downstream taking a river bank picnic on the way. No capsize drills are needed for these open craft, and even nervous beginners can rapidly progress to be able to complete the trip. - Wye Valley BCU 'Star' Tests We can offer training and testing for BCU 1 - 3 Star Awards in Canoe or Kayak.
