GUIDED CANOEING TRIPS
Open Canoeing on the River Wye in South Wales
Looking to learn the skill of Open Canoeing? Our Open Canoeing sessions take place on the River Wye, near Brecon, and are a great way to introduce you to the sport whilst having a fun day out.
For the session our British Canoeing qualified guides will equip you with a buoyancy aid and paddle and give a brief safety talk in preparation for your canoe experience. Once on the water your guide will teach you the essential skills to paddling and once you have mastered these, they will then lead you down the River Wye where your canoe experience will begin. Along the way they will teach you a few techniques, general river terms, navigation as well safely guiding you downstream, they will also throw in a couple of games for those up for the challenge.
