1 AUTUMN NEWSLETTER - Nov 2013 Welcome to Explore Highland s Autumn 2013 Newsletter has again been a very, very busy second season for us and we are just starting to play catch up now. Although we never really stop paddling, from November to February, we are usually a little quieter, allowing us to recover from summer, take on board all our customer feedback and make plans for the following season already looks very exciting as we have even more adventures planned in all crafts, in all corners of the scenic Highlands. Keep exploring, Donald Canoe Trails, Wilderness & White Water 2014 is the year of homecoming in Scotland. Our aim is to get everyone canoe active in our great outdoors, explore new places and the time you spend in the Scottish wilderness truly rewarding. Canoeing Activities for 2014 Introduction to Open Canoeing (1 day) Improvers Open Canoeing (1 day) River Moriston Canoe Adventure (2 days) Loch Ness Canoe Adventure (2 days) Loch Maree/ River Ewe Adventure (2 days) Great Glen Canoe Trail (4-5 days) River Spey Canoe Expedition (2-4 days) River Tay Canoe Expedition (2-4 days) Highland Canoe Classis (5 days) and more In 2013 we guided the Great Glen Canoe Trail seven times and the River Spey four looks even busier and looking to offer both guided Great Glen and River Spey adventures monthly during the season. Guided touring kayak adventures will also be offered to those who prefer two blades! For canoeists who are looking for a more purist challenge, we will be adding a few lesser known Scottish Canoe Trails to our diary. These will help you master many traditional canoeist journeying skills and a whole new meaning to the words Explore Highland! Not forgetting the white water canoeists, we will be offering our now famous five day Highland Canoe Classics course in both Spring and Autumn. Paddle a minimum of five Highland classic canoe rivers over five days, based out of Inverness. The Scottish Highlands are every canoeists dream holiday! Facebook Explore Highland have now passed the 1,600 likes. Help us reach our 2,014 likes target by sharing with your friends, family and work colleagues!
2 White Water Kayaking Over the last two years, Explore Highland has focused on becoming one of Scotland s best paddlesports providers. We may be a small local company, but that s what our clients love about us. We can create bespoke adventures, activities and courses on request whilst providing friendly local and highly experienced instructors, making your activities safe, fun and progressive no matter your skill level. Yes it s true, we haven t pushed our white water kayaking side much, until now! However, we are equally skilled and capable in offering fantastic Scottish kayaking adventure holidays too. Fusion Crossover Kayaks New for 2014, Explore Highland will be receiving a fleet of Pyranha Fusion crossover kayaks. These crafts will be help us offer a number of new multi-day paddling adventures. Ideal for use on flat water, sheltered water and white water environments, they have enough storage space for multi-day adventures. Some adventures we will be offering using Fusions; Loch Ness Adventures River Spey Expeditions and more Great Glen Expeditions River Findhorn Expeditions What s more is that these great boats will be available to hire for single and multi-day self guided adventures when not booked out for our trips. Your kayaking adventures within the Scottish Highlands are now endless with these great boats being added to our white water kayak fleet. Highland White Water Classics - Int/Adv Kayak Scotland is undoubtedly thee best place to white water kayak in the UK. During Spring and Autumn the water is guaranteed, offering a great choice of graded white water rivers to challenge any kayaker. We guide a number of five day Intermediate and Advanced group holidays based centrally from Inverness. Each morning the group can decide on the best local white water rivers to paddle that day. We supply local guiding/coaching, transport from Inverness and all equipment (if required). Paddlers can choose their own local accommodation which we can help source, with top highland hospitality. Intermediate: 3-7 Feb 14 Advanced: Feb 14 White Water Safety & Rescue Course Our next WWSR course will be running over weekend 12/13 April which has six places. We are lucky to have Bruce Jolliffe as the tutor for this course. Those that don t know Bruce, he was part of the team that produced the White Water Safety DVD, which you ll receive as part of the course (unless you already own it)! Course cost is 150 including DVD or 140 without DVD For more info see:
3 Scottish Sea Kayaking Over the season our two P&H Cetus kayaks Salti & Knoydart have visited a lot of Scotland s coastline and covered many hundred nautical miles. Knoydart, pictured above, joined the coaches fleet in March and was apply named as it ended up visiting the Knoydart area no less than four times within it s first three months with us including during the Scottish Sea Kayak Symposium back in May. Over 2013 we also helped supporting many self-guided groups to explore the Scottish coastline. Our plans are to run a lot more sea kayaking activities too in 2014, as our sea kayak instructor team increases. Here s some of our sea kayaking activities we have lined up for next year.

Explore Highland offers excellent hire equipment to paddlers with suitable experience. Experience will depend on your chosen adventure. Minimum experience required for sheltered water use would be similar to that of the BCU 2 Star syllabus. We are able to offer safety/skills training too for those requiring it.
