Canoeing
We offer bespoke open canoeing trips for individuals and groups. We select the perfect spot for your skill level. Beautiful calm rivers and lakes for those on their first forays into canoeing or those seeking a more contemplative experience. For those with some initial experience we can offer a dose of exhilarating white-water. On all the river trips there is rich bird life and the chance to spot kingfishers, herons, sand martins, jumping salmon or, if you’re lucky, otters.
Walking
Exploring, etc offer bespoke guided walks in all areas of Northumberland, whether mountainous, like the Mighty Cheviot or the stunning coastal paths. A guided walk is a great way to see the hidden gems of the region, spot a great variety of wildlife and bring the local history and culture to life.
