Join Geelong Canoe Club for a relaxing paddle and explore the Barwon River in Geelong. Part of the Club’s River Ramble series these events are relaxed social paddles open to adults (minimum age 18 years) of all paddling abilities.
River Rambles are paddles designed for social and community connection where participants can get out on the water in a friendly social and safe manner. Led by Paddle Australia qualified guides participants will learn about the native wildlife ecology Indigenous perspectives and history and the impact of introduced species along the river as they paddle.
