Hire a Canadian Canoe or a Kayak and discover the tranquil beauty of
the River Wye. The Wye is one of the most beautiful rivers in the
British Isles, and one of the few you can navigate, without
restriction, for over 100 miles. It meanders through picturesque
countryside to where it joins the River Severn at Chepstow and is well
populated with wildlife. See kingfishers, herons, cormorants, swans, and even otters, in their natural habitat.
This Peaceful setting is an ideal place to spend a few hours, a day or even a week. Hire a canoe. Leave your car on our FREE river-side car park. Take a picnic, then canoe downstream and we will pick you up, FREE OF CHARGE, from one of the designated access points and return you to your car. (Buoyancy Aids are provided).
