Did someone say pub…?
Grab your friends and head out for a paddle with a twist. Glide along the scenic canal spots through Barrow-On-Soar, Quorn, and Mountsorrel, stop off at one of the riverside pubs for a refreshing drink on ice and your weekly quota of fried halloumi, before taking a chilled meander back to base.
Enjoy a day out cruising between our favourite spots along the River Soar on a Kayak or Paddleboard (select when booking).
“We would definitely do this again & bring family & friends along to enjoy the fun with us.”
