About
Canoeing is a great activity for whatever mood you are in, whether you are looking for an action packed adventure down on white water or a peaceful trip on the local Pontsticill Reservoir. In our open canoes you can work solo, in pairs or in small groups of three to get the canoe moving in the direction you wish, a great team-building activity! Open canoes are great for exploring the local area, whether it's a half day trip or multi day carrying all the camping kit needed for an overnight expedition,
Open Canoes were originally designed by North American Indians and Canadians, who used open canoes for exploring. Their traditional canoes were made out of Birch bark, which made them lightweight and easy to transport.
Our British Canoe qualified instructors can cater for beginners to the most advanced of paddlers. We offer everything from taster sessions to National Governing Body Star Awards for those looking to progress further.
Is it ok if you cannot swim? Yes, let your instructor know and they will give you some advice and equipment to keep you afloat.
What To Wear
A swim costume or underwear under the wetsuit, a pair of trainers with a good sole on and a pair of shorts to wear over the top of the wetsuit. All other kit is provided. In summer months, shorts and a t-shirt may be the best for canoeing as you don't get too hot.
