Kayaking

Kayaking involves paddling in a boat on your own. This activity can be done on many of the areas lakes.

As with open canoeing, you can choose to have a half day session or go for a full day out and journey from one end of a lake to the other taking in points of interest and visiting islands along the way.

As part of your day out, you will be shown all sorts of fun things and games that you can do in a kayak and we will teach you the basic skills of how to handle a kayak and what to do if you capsize. If you are keen enough, we may also teach you how to roll -how to right your kayak after you have capsized without getting out of the craft.

KMS can also provide guided river trips but in order to come on one of these you must have attended one of our basic flat water (lake) skills sessions first and have demonstrated competence in handling one of these craft.

KMS can find you suitable venues in the Lake District and kayaking is ideal as part of a package of day activities for groups, stag/hen parties or individuals.

All equipment is provided, contact us for details
