Small group river trips of 3 clients are lead by an accredited trainer. Every paddler is expected to be competent and self sufficient. Grade 2 certificates are mandatory. Our experienced trainers will show you the hot lines, the safe lines and provide tips and advice on how to do your best on race day. Subject to availability, hire kayaks and transport can be provided for out-of-towners.
Group trips are not "race runs". Groups are expected to stay together travelling at the pace of the slowest participant.
