About

Kayaking

Kayaking in the Lake District has something for every one. Exploring The Lake District by kayak is a fantastic experience.

Kayaking is just one part of Canoe Sport. There are many branches of kayaking, from messing about on the water, to longer kayaking journeys on lakes and rivers. Joint Adventures has a variety of kayaks because we know that not all our customers are the same. All are kayaks are of a good specification, and are bought with comfort in mind. This means they have fully adjustable back rests and foot rests. Our flat water and beginners kayaks are very stable, and are easy to get to go in a straight line. Larger paddlers get larger boats!

Kayak Touring

If you want more why not try kayak touring in The Lake District? Imagine; you have your kayak packed with your provisions, your route planned, and you are fully prepared for your kayak tour exploring on one of The Lake District's larger lakes, taking in an island or two on the way. At Joint Adventures we have the craft (specialist touring/sea kayaks) which will allow you to quickly master the basics, and help you develop the skills and knowledge to enable you to explore.... where no hill walker can!

After some initial training, in which you will master basic skills and get comfortable in your kayak, we will set off on your kayak journey exploring one of the Lake District lakes. Journeys can be one way or round trips, but in any case you will experience the lake from a different view.
 

Kayak & Canoe Skills

If you want more than a quick taster session, then kayak and canoe skills courses are for you. You will develop your skills to enable you to enjoy which ever aspects of canoe sport interest you. You can chose courses where you will have a chance to use a variety of different types of boat, or concentrate your efforts on just mastering one. You can find out about our Kayak Touring courses as well. We run training and assessments for all BCU Star tests.

Please see the website for the courses available.


White water kayaking and canoeing

We aim to make learning to paddle white water kayak or white water canoe exciting and fun. Small group sizes of a maximum of 4 clients to 1 instructor ensures that get good quality coaching input and individual needs are met. The course descriptions below give an indication of experience needed to allow you to progress on a white water canoe or kayak course.

White water kayaking and canoeing are exciting dynamic activities which require skill and confidence. Our aim is to allow you to develop your basic skills and take them onto the next level. With courses from 1 day to 5 days Joint Adventures instructors can get you to progress confidently onto moving water.

One or two day courses are for those who have good control of their kayak or canoe on flat water, and wish to develop skills to paddle white water up to grade two. Following a short review flat water skills, the rest of the course will involve skill development to include breaking in and out of white water, surfing small waves, and river reading skills.

For those with less experience and good fitness we offer a 4 or 5 day course which takes you from the basics of flat water skills to running your first river.

White water sessions from September onwards. Please enquire via the website for details..
