Canoeing

We have a number of Canadian Open Canoes each of which takes either two or three people. As with all of our activities, they are designed for those 8-years and over, however with Canadians it may be possible to take out 7-year olds if accompanied by a parent.

Activities

Canoeing

We run sessions for the absolute beginner up to courses leading to BCU three star. Longridge taster sessions are always a good experience for the first time paddler, they run throughout the day and evening from Easter until the Autumn and last for 75 minutes.

Our prices are based on groups of 8 led by a qualified instructor for a fun session or groups of 6 if working towards a BCU qualification.

For those wishing to broaden their experience we can offer courses based on the BCU syllabus (British Canoe Union). Go to courses to find out what we are running this year or ring Longridge on 01628 483252 to arrange a bespoke course for your group. Qualified and experienced instructors run our sessions and to retain our faultless safety record we insist on a minimum ratio of 1 instructor to 6 people
