Stand Up Paddleboarding Shared Experiences at Park Foot Campsite, Pooley Bridge

30th March 2023

£39.00

EVER FANCIED PADDLE BOARDING BUT DIDN’T WANT TO THROW YOURSELF IN AT THE DEEP END? YOU HAVE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE!
Our paddle boarding experience on Ullswater is aimed at people who are complete beginners wanting a ‘have a go experience’, those looking for a fun few hours with like-minded people doing something a little different or those looking for a fun and exciting family day.

Our qualified instructor will teach you some basic skills before kitting you up and getting you on the water. On the lake you will have a journey, practice some skills and try some (optional) challenges. As Kenneth Grahame said “There is nothing – absolutely nothing – half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.”

MEETING POINT:

Lake Access Point

Pooley Bridge
