Kayaking & Canoeing
Kayaking
Spend time on the Heatree kayaking pond, in single boats or double. Learn some basic skills to move around the water and practice by playing games, many of which may result in getting very wet.
Canoeing
Try your hand at open boating on our canoeing pond. Up to three people in the boat means working together is necessary to get anywhere. Play tug o’ war and other games which may result in a quick swim depending on the skills and co-operation of your boating partners.
