Canterbury Stour Trip

Download as iCal file
 
Saturday 28 December 2013, 08:45 - 16:00
     

Come and paddle through Canterbury and on down the Stour to Fordwich to work off the Christmas mince pies. At the end we will find a pub (George & Dragon, Fordwich) to help us put the calories back on again! The total distance is approximately 6 to 8 km.

Meet at 08:45 in the Club car park - full details here

The tour is best suited to polyethylene kayaks. We have had swimmers in the past so paddlers with some experience only please (BCU 2* CCK or equivalent). Portaging features may be an option (except for the last drop which is near the end of the paddle anyway (and there is an alternative route if preferred). It will be COLD so Kags + warm clothing essential and bring a hot drink and choc bars etc.

Full details are here

Disclaimer: all our trips are run by club members like you, and unless specifically described otherwise are peer paddles.  If you think that you would benefit from the support of a formal river leader or coach, please contact the trip organiser in advance - we can usually arrange something!  Otherwise you should be confident that your own ability matches the trip as planned.  If your trip is being led by someone - a more experienced paddler, river leader or a coach - it is your responsibility to mention any medical or other issues which may arise during the trip.
