Cooking together & Kayaking

This canoe adventure is designed for people with a sense of fun and adventure. You may never have canoed before or you may be wheelchair bound, no problem, provided you are prepared to 'muck in' and have a go! The River Wye river flows through some of the most pleasand Welsh border country. The river is teaming with bird life, swans, ducks and sand martins galore. June / July is probably the best time to canoe the Wye, when the weather is generally settled and the cygnets and ducklings are only a few weeks old. We will be launching at Whitney-on-Wye and our campsite will be at Preston on Wye, in a small site on a farm on the river. This is a very basic campsite, a good clean toilet and water. We shall have a mess tent which we can make private for a wash roomwhen needed. It is in a lovely riverside position and within walking distance from a small village.
Each day we paddle in open 2 person boats along a section of this lovely river. This adventure on slow moving water will allow everyone to im,prove their paddling skills. There will of course be the usual night out and we will visit the Yew Tree where our host Mike is an old friend.
Qualified instructors and excellent equipment will ensure your safety throughout the trip.
