How To Book
The frequency between trips can be a bit variable (to fit in with the availability of our trip leaders) but we always aim to offer a varied and action packed programme of events.
Some trips maybe subject to minimum or maximum numbers or need a certain level of ability to participate.
For the time being for all bookings please email chairman@croydonactivepaddlers.org See our facebook group to see what we've been up to recently https://www.facebook.com/groups/231679889

CAP’s traditional Dartmoor Whitewater Weekend
Join us on this Whitewater weekend catering for all levels of paddlers. There will be two
days of “Introduction to Whitewater” specially aimed at those of you capable on flatwater but wanting to TRY Whitewater as well as more challenging trips for our more confident paddlers. Staying in a cosy bunkhouse with roaring log fire we have a really fun time and also head out for a lovely sociable Dinner on Saturday evening.

River Thames … Walton to Sunbury and return, paddle the mighty Thames
