Flat Water

Instructional Kayak Flat Water Lessons

Just 1 hour west of Toronto Ontario Canada

An introductory course where you learn as you paddle. This course starts on the quiet water of the lake at Pinehurst Conservation Area, just north of Paris - a perfect spot to get accustomed without river current. Your instructor will teach safety & Paddle techniques plus let you practice all the basic steering strokes.

When you feel comfortable we shuttle to the Grand River to paddle down a gentle section of the River with your instructor coaching. This is a very scenic section that is rich in history. You’ll learn to read the current & your instructor will show you how to navigate the river using the skills learnt in your morning session.

When done this course you will be able to maneuver with confidence on flat lake water or gentle rivers. It may also give you wanting to try the more daring fast water course!

This course is offered every Sunday at 9:30am or any other day for groups of 4 or more!

Cost $119/person.
* includes: instruction, shuttle service, lunch & rental of all equipment (boat, paddle, PFD)
