Introduction to Canoeing

canoeWhat could be more Canadian than the image of exploring a wilderness river by canoe? If the very thought fills you with doubt or concern, than it’s time for one of our ½ day or full day canoe courses!


During the ½ day class, our talented Instructors will introduce you to the “Art of Canoeing”. Before long, you’ll surprise yourself by quickly learning how to safely launch and land, paddle forward and reverse, turn both ways and properly load for a trip.


Our full day course starts with the ½ day topics and includes more advanced skills such as rescue options, reading rivers, basic eddy turns, river maneuvers and trip planning.

 

Prices are $55.00 plus GST per person for a 1/2 day and $110 plus GST for the full day (min 4 people).
