Wye Valley intro to overnighting
I have just returned from the Introduction to Overnighting in the Wye Valley. We had 3 days of excellent paddling with 2 nights camping. The whole experience far surpassed my expectations.
I was nervous that I wouldn't be fit enough to cover the distances but this wasn't the case. Caz, with Jon's support made the whole experience a 5 star one. Frequent stops for tea and cake together with 121 tuition on reading the river and paddle strokes. My paddling has come on so much and I even stood, paddling down some small rapids. A sense of achievement.
Camp was amazing. Caz is an excellent cook and there wasn't a moment of hunger the whole time. In fact, on the 1st night, tucked up in a sleeping bag and tent, I was so full of gorgeous food. The 2 evening menus were chicken, spinach and cashew curry with sticky rice. Beef chilli with nachos, cheese, guacamole, salsa and sour cream and of course the obligatory smores around the camp fire.
The whole experience was amazing and I'm now considering Sweden for next year. One of the other special things is that I made new friends with like minded people. We all truly had a laugh and I really hope we meet up again.
Highly recommended. Couldn't fault a thing. Get booking, events fill up fast.
