What you can expect

  • Take the plunge into white water and develop your independence on the river with this Canoeing II - White Water course.

    The logical next step after Canoeing I, this course allows you to familiarise yourself with currents and easy rapids while building your confidence and coordination in a tandem canoe.

    Under the supervision of a certified Aquaventure instructor, you will learn how to paddle efficiently both as a bow paddler and as a stern paddler.

    The Programme:

    Reading the river and choosing a safe route

    Crossing currents (ferries)

    Entering and exiting currents

    Tandem positioning and communication

    Obstacle management and rapids analysis

    Safety and rescue techniques in white water

    The training takes place on accessible but dynamic sections of the river, ideal for a first experience on white water.

    The second day includes a guided descent to put the techniques learned into practice. (Conditions permitting)

    The perfect training to tackle easy river routes independently.
