1. I’m just a beginner/Intermediate kayaker, will I be
o.k. on the River?
|
| |
It is not a problem at all, the river is great
for all levels, even in spring time when the river is higher,
there are trips available for beginners and intermediate.
We do recommend you get a guide to help get you settled and
show you around the river.

are many rivers and sections, and there are many places you do
