For those looking to build their confidence and abilities for a scenic river trip, the Intro to Adventure Rec Kayaking course is designed as an evening and full-day skills progression tying in flat water and river kayaking in crossover-style kayaks.
The aim of this program is to introduce participants to the world of adventure rec kayaking in a safe, fun and educational framework. Throughout the two-day course, instructors will take paddlers through a progression to give them the confidence to be able to do a full day river run on a slow-moving river without a guide.
After completing this course, participants can expect to understand how to safely and competently paddle a crossover kayak in Class I moving water and should feel comfortable paddling in flat water or class I rivers without an instructor or guide.
