Previous kayaking experience is required for a safe paddling session. To ensure everyone's safety, paddlers should be proficient with basic kayaking techniques and be comfortable handling the kayak independently. Please note that we will unfortunately have to turn you away on the day if you have not kayaked before, so cannot fulfill this criteria, and this is for the safety of you and your group.

With a picturesque backdrop and rich biodiversity, your time on the River Avon will be a moment to disconnect and rejuvenate. Our friendly staff is always ready to assist, ensuring your session is both safe and enjoyable.
Please note: While the River Avon is a hub of vibrant wildlife, we urge paddlers to avoid consuming its water due to the natural presence of wildlife. If you feel unwell post-paddle, promptly inform us and consult with your GP, highlighting your river activity.
