Will I get wet Canoeing & Kayaking and do I need spare clothes?

Not 100% but very likely. Make sure to bring a full change of clothes and spare shoes to change into. We will take our time to get you to stand up. Once up we’ll go on a journey down towards Ripley Castle. When we get back we will start playing a variety of games and developing your skills, it’s this point when you are likely to get wet. Very good fun though!

Do you provide wetsuits for Canoeing & Kayaking?

We do have some cags and wetsuits you can borrow if you need, but numbers are limited. Everyone will be provided with a buoyancy aid. You’re also welcome to bring your own wetsuits.

Do you have changing rooms for Canoeing & Kayaking?

Yes we have basic changing rooms onsite, but not for our Yorkshire Adventures.

Do you provide safety equipment for Canoeing & Kayaking?

Yes, we provide buoyancy aids and helmets for people taking part in our watersports activities.

Can we go Canoeing & Kayaking if the weather is bad?

Canoeing & Kayaking are weather-dependent activities. In case of bad weather, we will reschedule your session for a safer and more enjoyable experience.
