Aspen Outdoors Ltd – Three-day Open Gold Canoe Practice Expedition – Loch Tay

Canoes are an amazing way to travel: exploring rivers, lochs, coastlines, and islands. Why not try a canoe expedition for your Gold?

The practice expedition will take place on Loch Tay in Highland Perthshire, in Scotland. The expedition will start on Friday afternoon, involve two wild camps and two canoeing days on Loch Tay, and finish on Sunday afternoon. No prior experience of canoeing is required. We will start at the western end of this big loch, near the town of Killin. Day one will involve lots of skills training in the river and loch; e.g:
  • What to wear
  • Safety and Rescue
  • Getting on the water
  • Steering
  • Stopping the canoes
  • Weather, planning and navigation
Day two will be a journey on Loch Tay.
