The first day of this two-day course is for those people who
have never canoed before or have only canoed a few times and would
like to learn the paddling and rescue skills you need in
preparation for the river trip on day two. On day two, you will
travel to the launch site at Kincraig on the upper River Spey. Once
on the water time will be taken to offer paddling techniques that
will help you become more comfortable in your boat. Paddling down
the river you will experience the beautiful Cairngorms National
Park from a unique vantage point that most tourists never see. You
will witness a huge variety of bird and wildlife before stopping
for a packed lunch at the lunch spot. After lunch you will continue
down the River Spey and end the trip at the Old Bridge Inn in
Aviemore.
Although all the activities are tailored for
novices, please bear in mind that we will be paddling on river and
current and weather will be a factor. Poor weather may result in a
change of paddling plans such as paddling on a different part of
the river.
