Hello All, Having not paddled the Dart loop for about a decade due to being overseas, I was wondering what the latest info on access is as am looking to get back on it this season. I've heard New Bridge is now a paid car cark and that Holne bridge is much more difficult in terms of egress / parking....

Thanks all, much appreciated.

Seems the landowners have turned up the greed factor somewhat by all accounts. Good to see the NRW are just as beef as Nature England....

Hello everyone,

Anybody paddled the River Wye recently (last 2 years?)

If so, can you suggest a good 3 day itinerary for a novice group of fit military paddlers (tandem)?


Much appreciated,

Duz

Fellow single bladers, Have any of you paddled (canoed not kayaked) the Gave du Pau in the Pyrenees? Is so, what sections and at what time of year would you recommend? I've been asked to organise an expedition for a group in Mid May however concerned over the potential for high volumes of snow melt ...

Very many thanks :-)

Fellow paddlers,

I am attempting (currently to no avail) to locate and purchase a river guide book for the Gave du Pau in France.

Anyone know where I could get one?

Any signposting appreciated.

Paddled this stretch yesterday for the first time in a few years.

The trees now overhang Salmon steps Weir to a potentially hazardous extent in higher water, especially for novice groups. The main face of the weir goes in higher water of course.
