Kayaking Taster Trip For those who have never canoed before or those who just want to take things nice and easy, this taster sessions will introduce you to the fun of canoeing before taking you on a short trip down the Lerryn Creek or the upper River Fowey from Lostwithiel.

Your guide will get you quickly into the basic skills of paddling before a gentle trip through the stunning scenery of the estuary. Lasting around 2 hours the taster sessions are perfect for those wanting the chance to try some paddling in a fantastic location without having to commit to a full day on the river.

Trips are undertaken in stable open cockpit double kayaks. For those with reasonable kayaking experience the operatos have a small fleet of less stable but comfortable single kayaks which you can request on booking.
The actual start and finish points of trips may be altered due to tide and wind factors but as ever, the operator will ensure you are transported back to your car / accommodation at the end of your trip.

When choosing your trip, to ensure your enjoyment, please do not over estimate your experience / fitness levels. If you a bit nervous of canoeing, have young children or are not particularly fit, choose an evening paddle or a Kayaking Taster Trip. The 3 Hour and Half Day Kayaking River Trips suit anyone water confident, with good fitness levels and for all day trips you must have previous kayaking experience. If you are not sure just ask.
