Open Canoe Trip River Dee – Mike Alter

This will be on a grade 1 section of the River Dee from Farndon to Ecclestone Ferry.   This is an ideal first trip away from the docks and can be paddled as a tandem (pair) or solo.
Club Message Board for discussion of this trip…

Booking ends 24 hours before the event…

I am proposing to offer the use of my trailer and will meet at the docks for you to load your canoe from the compound. There are 6 spaces on the trailer, which can be booked below. We can pair you up if you are a novice paddler, so just book a place as a solo paddler and let the organiser know you would like to paddle tandem.

Once the canoes are loaded, we will need to use one or two cars to get everyone to the start, leaving the other cars at the compound.

If you would like to join us using your own boat, please use the own boat option on this form. You can also meet us there using a borrowed club open canoe, but it MUST be pre-booked using the club`s equipment booking forms. https://liverpoolcanoeclub.co.uk/equipment/
