Summer Programme

Every summer we run an activity programme for children aged between 8 and 16 years old. There are courses in a variety of activities both on and off the water and for those children who can't make up their mind what to try we also run a popular multi-activity course. NB. In order to sign up for a Multi-Activity L2 course your child must have attended at least two Multi-Activity L1 courses.

We are also running a number of overnight activity camps, these involve 2 nights away and are being run for the following activities; river kayaking, open canoeing and mountain biking.  In order to attend a camp participants should have good ability in the choosen activity and ideally have previously attended a level 3 course in the activityat Low Port.

Our courses are graded to suit a range of age and ability. Please observe this when making applications.
