Kayaking Catalonia – Pyrenees
For many years now we’ve ran a series of spring and summer weeks, primarily in the Catalan Pyrenees on the Noguera Pallaresa.
This year is now unfortunately cancelled, so why not come join us in 2021! 2022?
The Riu Noguera Pallaresa, nestled in the Pallars Sobira region of Catalonia, and its main town of Sort in particular, have a long standing association with White Water sports. It has long been the ‘Spiritual Home’ of many White Water enthusiasts from wild water racers and slalom paddlers through to commercial rafters and since 2001 it has had a very strong association with Freestyle, including the building of a Freestyle Stadium and new feature for the most recent 2019 World Championships.
This is why we offer a variety of weeks out there. With well over 50km of river, many different styles and grades of rapids to challenge different abilities of paddler and a local population who are thoroughly welcoming of ‘River People’; there really is something for everyone.
We also do tours across the Spanish side of the mountains taking in rivers through various stunning valleys in this beautiful mountain range.
In 2021 2022 we will be offering our:
Learn to Guide Week – for those wishing to work to Moderate or Advanced White Water Leader.
For more information on each of those paddling weeks, please follow the links above.
White Water Safety
The award winning White Water Safety film was one of the best projects I’ve ever managed.
The movie is 95 minutes packed full of good solid advice on White Water Safety and Rescue techniques for the White Water environment.
Written, presented and produced by myself and Dougie Shannon, filmed by award winning cameraman Paul Diffley and edited by TV pro & music producer Dave Clark. There is no other film like this on the market. It contains well tested techniques, all shot with high end production values.You can also access this on the White Water Safety YouTube channel.
