Once we are ready, we will take a 5min drive to the riverbank. After arrival at the starting point, you can get changed, and leave your dry clothes in the van secured.
We will start with a briefing session about hydrology, whitewater paddling techniques, and safety, and then have a warm-up on the flat part of the river to practice and gain confidence.
