About
An enjoyable, social paddle for those that like to get their exercise on the water, while taking in the great views from our blueways here in Fermanagh. Run by our experienced, qualified and friendly coaches, these will be guided trips with coaching as needed, including advice on efficient paddling, trip planning and navigation, paddling for fitness, etc.
Prerequisites
We recommend that participants should be at least 14 years old and be able to paddle at an easy to moderate rate for the duration of the trip. Love to Paddle Trips are usually around 8 to 10 km with 2 to 2.5 hours of paddling time.
Equipment
We will provide all paddlesport equipment you need; kayak or canoe, spraydecks, paddles, buoyancy aids and helmets.
The only thing we can't supply is your personal paddling wear.
For these trips, normal outdoor clothes suitable for the prevailing weather (tracksuit, fleeces or walking clothes and waterproofs, including shoes to get wet) are perfectly fine. If you have a wetsuit, that's great, please feel free to wear it, but it is not necessary for a one hour lesson at this time of year.
A full set of dry clothes including shoes and a towel are essential to bring for your comfort and safety.
Facilities
Please plan not to have to use public toilets. Depending on the venue there may not be changing facilities available. Arrive ready to go paddling or change at your car as many paddlers do. A changing towel and a mat to stand on make this a much easier and more discrete process, or a large bin liner to sit on on the way home in your paddling kit works well too.
General Information
