Lets Go There - A guide to Canoeing

Canoeing

Ride the rapids this weekend with some action on the water.

Canoeing is the perfect way to appreciate the beauty of the British countryside as well as getting the thrill of the sport.

It's a sport with ancient origins - from the days when man needed canoes or kayaks to explore his surroundings and hunt for food.

But these days the hunting is for the best places to combine outdoor sport with scenic views.

Britain is an ideal place for canoe enthusiasts because of the range of water stretches - from the tranquil lochs of Scotland and inland canals of England to the rivers and lakes and - the white water rapids for the really adventurous.

Whether you're a beginner or an expert here you will find all the best places to go and get wet 'n' wild. It can be as gentle or extreme as you wish. Many canoeists enjoy it as a way of exploring the rivers and lakes of the country.

Canoe clubs offer plenty of good advice on where you can and can't canoe, as well as tuition, safety training and equipment.
