Find Out MoreThis group is looking to spend the weekend challenging and developing their white water canoeing on sections of grade 2. Both solo and tandem paddlers are welcome.
Alongside your course through the day, there’ll be evening drop-in workshops, after-dinner talks, evening shenanigans from our friends at Hou Canoes, the Lochain Bar and a room full of musical instruments if anyone fancies a folk session.
You must also book your accommodation by selecting the accommodation option on the previous event page. Please note that any bookings made without accommodation will be contacted by our Bookings team in due course.
To enjoy this group, you’ll already be paddling on grade 1-2 rivers and are keen to be more precise and feel more in control. The venue will depend on the river levels and exactly what the group wants, but we’re likely to start off on one of the classic white water sections of the Spey.
The details are very much up to you, your volunteer coach, the river levels, and the weather.
Over the weekend we could take a look at:
Using the river
Choosing lines on rapids
When to paddle and when to drift
Accelerating the boat
Steering from the front and from the back
Using edge to unlock the ends of the boat
Rescues
…Or just enjoying paddling beautiful Scottish rivers!
