Paddle Boarding - Welford Arm - On the Grand Union Canal
A nice relaxed paddle on a dull Autumn day through the Northamptonshire countryside. This is a great place to launch if you're in the area and I highly recommend it! Great parking too.

My first paddling trip using public transport was quite an adventure on a frosty Autumn morning South of Birmingham. Loads of interesting bits and finishing at the amazing Gas Street Basin in the centre of the city. Loved it!
Paddle Boarding - Hatton Locks and Shrewley Tunnel - On the Grand Union Canal
มุมมอง 554ปีที่แล้ว
The Grand Union Canal amalgamated a lot of other canals and this particular stretch was once the Birmingham and Warwick Canal. Passing through Shrewley Tunnel this really is a nice paddle with great parking at Hatton locks too. Give it a try...
Paddle Boarding - Stratford Upon Avon - On the River Avon
มุมมอง 220ปีที่แล้ว
A really popular place and one that I paddle a lot. A friendly stretch of water with loads to see, whether you're a beginner or an experienced paddler, Stratford is always a nice day out.

On a 3 day paddle this was one of the highlights at around the 34 mile mark. Heavy rain for 2 days prior meant the Wye was pretty full with debris travelling through with us. Really great fun!!

Paddle Boarding - Foxton Locks to Market Harborough
มุมมอง 473ปีที่แล้ว
This was a lovely paddle with loads of history en-route. It's about 5.5 miles so an 11 mile round trip. Toilets and a pub at both ends with great parking at Foxton... on a nice day, what more could you possibly want?
Paddle Boarding - Wanlip. On the Soar
มุมมอง 279ปีที่แล้ว
This was a bit of a scramble around a meander of the River Soar at Wanlip, just North of Leicester. Trees, weeds and reeds but loads of fun too.
Paddle Boarding - Stratford Upon Avon Canal and Edstone Aqueduct
มุมมอง 515ปีที่แล้ว
Stratford Upon Avon canal was saved for the public by volunteers in the late 50's and 60's. It's now a truly wonderful place to paddle. Edstone Aqueduct is an engineering marvel too and still, some 200 years after it was built, the longest cast iron aqueduct in England.

Paddle Boarding - Rugby to Newbold Early Morning Paddle

    The possibility of falling on a child is exactly why I have liability insurance to walk around. It's Pedestrian Insurance provided by Bumble & Blunder Assurance Ltd and it's called Oops-a-Daisy Cover. On a serious note :) good tips BTW, I paddle on canals too.

    I remember paddling the length of the Wye 30 years ago carrying tents in kayaks and camping along the way. For Symmomds Yat to make it more fun I went down standing up on a blow up lilo. Who knew then paddle boarding would be a thing. Had my first go at SUP this week and hooked. Watching several of your videos today as I live in the East Midlands and interested to see local areas.

    I did Upton to Tewkesbury yesterday, lovely route. Launched above the bridge at Upton. Instead of landing at Lower Lode, I turned off into the Avon and landed at the slipway at the Lock Picnic Grounds, Tewkesbury. Did you have to pay to park & launch at Upton Marina?

    Thanks for sharing. How steep was the bank at Bredon to launch from? We tried to get round Tewkesbury weir too but like you couldn’t find a suitable spot to get back in downstream. We portaged over the road bridge instead to get into the Old Avon, didn’t realise we could have used the lock. We did use the lock at Lower Lode though (have a Waterways licence via Canoe Wales membership).

    Getting the side bladers out and out is not required, unless you've damaged the outer skin, as they can be tricky for some to get back in. Being a kite surfer for many years, I don't wash the kite off after every session as this could cause it to go mouldy, some salt prevents that. Other than that very informative, getting the floor out and cleaning inside is the bast tip. Thank you

Also, if you fancy popping over to Stratford Upon Avon the river is lovely from fisherman's carpark or from Braunston you could head to Napton and back... there are loads of possibilities in the West Mids to be honest.
