Important Information

Canoe Trail was one of the first companies in the country to get a Giant XL SUP and have added a multiple XL boards to the fleet. This allows us to offer head-to-head racing and team games on stand-up paddleboards. Paddling the Giant SUP offers teams a similar team experience as white water rafting as paddlers need to work together to paddle forwards, turn and steer the board. What makes it fun is that the board can be a little wobbly with your teammates paddling and moving as well. Often teams start on their knees and soon are standing up paddling together.

Hire FAQ's

What's the difference between a kayak and a canoe?

If you're not sure of what each craft is, then read our guide here.

Are the trips guided?

There are no guides or instructors needed for hire. This is simply a hire where you paddle out and back to our launch point. We recommend our preferred route, however, you are free-range and able to explore the river.

What if it rains?

Unless you hear from us then your booking will run on the day agreed. Canoe Trail runs watersports, paddling, and adventurous activities throughout the year with people enjoying the river and our woodland campsite during the different seasons. On rare occasions (it only happens a couple of times a year) we may move or change your booking. This will be in freak weather conditions such as extremely high river flows in spate or during heavy storms with lightning. You can read our full FAQ here.

How does the booking process work?

We use a live booking system that will assign you the relevant craft and resources. Once you have confirmed your booking date, it is not then transferable and non-refundable in the same way you book an airline seat. Bookings are to be paid in full at the time of booking and are non-refundable. There will be no refunds for early returns, poor weather, or non-usage as per our general terms & conditions.
