The trip is 16km and should take 4 hours, including a lunch break. It may be very cold so dress warm and bring a flask and lunch.
If you intend to paddle an open boat solo or tandem can you post a message below.
The event is subject to a suitable water level, else it will be cancelled or moved to a different river( likely to be a section of the Eden)
You should have a basic idea of how to read moving water and break in and out and ferry glide. Expect rapids up to grade 2.
RSVP limit is 12.

I am happy to co-ordinate and lead the trip. However, as we will be a team, we are jointly responsible for each other’s safety on the water.
Please ensure you carry the correct kit for the trip you are attending.
RSVP at least 2 days before the event
No guests.
