For anyone wishing to join the picnic but unable to paddle, it is possible to walk to the picnic site from Red Nab car park on the West side of Windermere or get the ferry from Ambleside.
Please bring some food and drink to share but bring your own plate, mug, cutlery, etc.
The trip will be led by a LCC approved leader, however we will paddle as a team taking joint responsibility 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. Guests by arrangement with organiser, prior to trip only.
