Beginner friendly kayak trip
Historic Loch Tay populated for thousands of years as evidenced by the many crannogs found in its depths. We will leave from just outside picturesque Kenmore Village, explore some of these visible crannogs, look out for signs of beaver and the varied birdlife as we explore the shorelines. This half day trip is great for novice or experienced paddlers all year round as we will take our time to take in the sights and marvel at the view of the mighty and often snow-capped Ben Lawers for this scenic backdrop.
