Wat je gaat doen
We will meet at Kinlochard, at the west end of Loch Ard. I will familiarise you with the kayaks and/or packraft and provide wetsuits, buoyancy aid etc. From here we can observe the expanse of Loch Ard and Eilean Gorm island. We will pack our lunch and drinks in our boats and adjust foot rests. Then it's time to give it a try. Packrafts are very stable, while kayaks take a bit of getting used to. I will not over instruct but can offer pointers. It's a lot of fun when you just take your time. We will arrive at the island and find the perfect spot for lunch. We will have beautiful views of the hills and mountains throughout. We can go at a pace that suits you and I'll take photographs so that you can remember your day. If this experience is not available on a day that suits you, please get in touch. I am mostly based at Killin on Loch Tay but may be able to work something out. Many thanks! Annie
Other things to note
You don't need to be a great swimmer to go kayaking or wear a spray deck. The kayaks have a capacity of up to 85kg. The packraft has a higher weight capacity.

I have thirteen years kayaking experience in Scotland. I was a part of the Scotland slalom squad as a junior. I write a blog about my kayaking adventures (kayakingjourneys.com). Over the past three years ive been on the river for approx 75 days. I have safety and rescue qualifications for both sheltered water and white water. I have a diploma in Sports Science. I also have coaching qualifications in kayaking. I love taking beginner's on to the lochs and rivers of Scotland and am a member of the Scottish Canoe Association. I supply all equipment.
