About Us
This web site was set up to address a problem of a lack of information for paddlers in Northern Ireland.
I have always been a keen canoeist. When I lived in England I was a member of Amersham Canoe Trekkers and a keen competitor in marathon racing. After moving to Northern Ireland I spent less time paddling, until my children became interested in the sport. So I started to look around for some good stretches of water to take them out on.
After surfing the web I only found a small number of sites with the kind of information I was looking for. Although the sites are very good I felt there was room for another web site, with information for canoeists new to Northern Ireland, tourists or local residents keen to get started in the sport of canoeing.
Currently I’m volunteer with a group called Adventure Leadership Training. A charitable group that provides team building activities, archery, climbing wall and we hope to be adding canoeing and raft building soon to the list.
