OPEN CANOEING
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 instructors 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 coach will teach you the essential skills to paddling and once you have mastered these, they will then guide you down the River Wye where your canoe experience will begin. Along the way your canoe instructor will teach you further techniques as well as general river terms which will prove to come in handy once the games begin!
