'Paddling the Wye'

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).

If you decide to go for a few days or a week, bring your tent and we will provide you with a map of the river together with a list of campsites giving details of their location and facilities, and directions to the nearest pub! For those seeking home comforts, Bed & Breakfast is available. Again, we pick you up, FREE OF CHARGE at the end of your holiday and bring you back to Hay and your car. (Barrels and dry-bags are provided for your camping equipment etc.).

'Paddling the Wye' is a great way for couples, families or groups to spend a few hours or a week. An experience not to be missed.



To book your single-man Kayak or open Canadian Canoe, which will accommodate 2-3 adults or 2 adults and 2 small children, please telephone Paddles & Pedals, at Hay-on-Wye 01497 820604.
