Enjoy an adventure on the River Stort with our two-man canoes through nature reserves and marshes with unspoiled views over the Hertfordshire countryside beyond, offering a fun experience with our relaxing paddling sessions exploring nature, narrow boats and traditional locks en route.
Whilst we are near to London by train with fast transport links from the city, our countryside base offers paddling experiences in the Hertfordshire countryside with country pubs, Sawbridgeworth maltings and riverside tea rooms nearby that you can visit en route. We can pass on information about some of the best places locally to stop on your adventure, be it a picnic or a three course lunch.
Our hire paddling sessions are self-guided, but we can also offer you instruction on request with a specialist guide to help you through locks and cover as well as developing your paddling skills.
