Go Canoeing Starter Sessions

These are sessions specific for people who have never been canoeing or kayaking before and want to try it. We will be putting them on through the year and people can book on to them as they would with Adventure Club. The sessions are all 90 minutes and come in three categories: Fun, Upstream Trip and Downstream Trip.

Go Canoeing Tours

See some of Leicestershire from a different perspective by travelling along the rivers and canals paddling your own boat. We have several different Tours to choose from, each with a different theme and suited for different skills levels. Take a leisurely paddle to the pub, a trip through the city with our Urban Leicester Paddle, through the small picturesque villages of north Leicestershire with the Down River Tour, or try something new with a trip out on our Stand Up Paddleboards. For our younger visitors we also have the KataKanu tour.
