Why Choose This Trip?

A WONDERFUL TWO DAYS ON THE RIVER, WITH TWO POSSIBLE START POINTS (choosing from a longer more challenging first day, or easy shorter option - Second day ALWAYS nice n easy). This canoe camping trip includes two nights camping, so you can set up camp the night before your paddle begins. You might choose the more challenging first day with a 14 mile paddle from Rushden Lakes to your camp location at Wadenhoe, passing 7 locks with your canoe, this isn’t for the faint-hearted. Or the far shorter 4-mile paddle, starting from Thrapston Nine Arches Bridge. Either way, you'll be back at the peaceful camp location at Wadenhoe with beautiful views over The Nene Valley, and just a 20 minute walk (or 10 minute paddle) to the idyllic riverside pub, The King’s Head. The second day is pretty short with just a couple of hours on the water. The longer trip is often the choice of Stag & Hen groups, and is a great couple of days for anybody looking for a good physical day, with lots of fresh air, who is also hoping for a slow, relaxed start and a short paddle on your second day. Includes transport back at end of your trip, and your camping pitch fees for both nights
