SUMMARY:Canoe trip on the Semois
DESCRIPTION:During this canoe trip on the Semois the enchanting valley with its steep rocky slopes is our guide. We’ll paddle through dense forests and green meadows but also charming villages and towns. The famous castles of Herbeumont\, Bouillon and Monthermé tell us the history of this region\, which has been traversed by the most powerful world armies. Majestic bridges or narrow passerelles across the river lead to sometimes surprising places. \nThe Semois Valley\, in the southwest of Belgium near the French border\, is a gem between Gaume and Ardennes. Canoeing through the splendid scenery of the beautiful meanders of the Semois makes you appreciate this region to the fullest. It is the only Belgian river where you can paddle for hours through nature and get a real sense of wilderness travel. \nFind out more

SUMMARY:Canoe trekking in the Ardennes
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an open canoe trekking as we paddle through Lorraine and the scenic Ardennes in the north of France. The Meuse River is considered one of the oldest rivers in the world because it flows through the Ardennes massif which was formed during the Paleozoic era. This makes her at least 250 million years old. \nStarting our journey on a gentle section of the river we’ll practice different strokes and techniques as we go. As we travel downstream through several picturesque little villages and France’s famous World War I battle fields the character of the river changes all along. From dense forests to endless rolling hills. The river is home to a diverse range of wildlife and there’s always the chance of spotting beavers. The sandy riverbanks are home to colonies of Sand Martins. \nAdventurous days on the river will be balanced by tranquil nights in the campsites where we prepare tasty meals each evening leaving you ready for the challenges of the next day. \nFind out more

SUMMARY:Day trip on the Meuse River
DESCRIPTION:Canoeing on the Meuse is a real treat. The cross-border Meuse Valley River Park forms for 40 km the border between Belgium and The Netherlands and is one of the biggest and most successful projects on ecological river recovery in Europe. It’s also the only part of the Meuse in the Low Countries that’s not extensively diked and stowed. The Rivier winds through a varied landscape with a jumble of old river arms\, bank embankments\, trenches and gravel banks. \nThe Meuse has a – by Dutch and Flemish standards – great fall\, high flow speed and enormous dynamics. That’s why canoeing on the Meuse River can be quite exciting at times especially in the middle part where a succession of rapids forces any paddler to keep her or his guard. Other parts of the river have a more peaceful and tranquil quality giving you the time to enjoy the surroundings and the bird life and maybe spot a beaver.

SUMMARY:Day trip on the Ourthe
DESCRIPTION:The pleasure of paddling an exciting river\, without the need for difficult technical skills! That’s canoeing on the Ourthe. The river offers a real immersion in nature while the current keeps a lively character. In spring\, ice jams and fallen trees may block part of the river\, making the descent more adventurous. Canoeing on the Ourthe offers all canoeists exhilarating sensations without great risk. Difficulty WW I / I +. \nThe Ourthe consists of a set of relatively easy and varied sections. Between Hotton and Durbuy\, the river winds widely and calmly through the vast plain of the Famenne. While downstream from Durbuy\, the water makes its way between the hills of the Condroz. Canoeing on the Ourthe is a joy for beginning and advanced paddlers. Some technical background is required however since we’re paddling the river in spring with potentially high water levels and sometimes a powerful current.

SUMMARY:Day trip on the Rur River
DESCRIPTION:Canoeing on the Rur is a unique experience for the Netherlands\, because it is one of the last major Dutch rivers to meander freely. There are many places with gravel banks\, but the river also has real steep banks where Kingfisher and Sand Martin nest. The river itself is rich in stream-loving aquatic plants\, which\, in a canoe\, can be a hassle sometimes. \nThe day trip on the Rur is approximately 22 km long. The meandering course is largely quiet with\, nevertheless\, a noticeable current. Along the Roer there are mainly agricultural lands\, meadows\, poplar stands and willow thickets.

SUMMARY:Weekend canoe trip on the River Somme
DESCRIPTION:The Romans called her Samara\, adopting Gallic terms: samo (quiet) and ar (river or valley). And it is true\, the Somme is a very peaceful stream. Her valley forms a complex set of rivers\, marshes\, ponds and canals we will paddle between Amiens and Abbeville. \nIt winds through a quiet landscape where hundred-year-old weeping willows greet you from its banks. In the fields you are likely to see herons and\, between the trees\, a few stately residences hardly daring to reveal themselves. During this weekend canoe trip historical treasures await you. The Reims cathedral but also the medieval character of the villages. In the evening\, after dinner\, take a tour in the marshes where the trails will lead you to discover the specific flora and fauna of this place. \nFind out more

SUMMARY:Day trip on the Dommel River
DESCRIPTION:Canoeing on the Dommel is always a treat. The winding river meanders between Neerpelt and Valkenswaard through forests and meadows. You pass through two nature reserves\, Hageven and Malpie and you have to be very unlucky not to spot Kingfishers. Especially during the first part of the trip\, they find a home in the elevated river banks. Further on you will come across the infrastructure work of beavers who have been living here for several years now. \nThe Dommel is an ideal river to practice your paddling skills. The constant meandering and the light current keep you alert. While paddling\, the guide will pay attention to the ins and outs of preparing and making canoe trips. As you cruise through a tranquil landscape you will learn basic paddling techniques\, safety skills and how to load and carry your canoe. \nFind out more

SUMMARY:Day trip on the Leie River
DESCRIPTION:Canoeing on the Leie between Astene and Ghent means looking inside the most impressive villas and country houses of Flanders. But it’s not just bon chic bon genre. The Leie is particularly picturesque and it is not surprising that its valley was the source of inspiration for many painters of the Latem School. Permeke\, De Smet and Minne\, they all used to live here. \nThe Leie is also an ideal river to practice your paddling skills. You are rarely alone on the water and motor boats and yachts come and go. Keeping your canoe straight on the stern waves is a great exercise to hone your paddling skills. \nFind out more

SUMMARY:Day trip on the Dender River
DESCRIPTION:The Dender used to be one of the most polluted rivers of Belgium but that has been reversed in recent years and now the water quality is back up to standard. It has improved favorably and it has turn back into a rich fishing water. On summer days you can see dozens of carp warming up just beyond the water surface. Nature\, towns\, villages and industry alternate. Mostly it’s very quiet on the water\, but the towpath along the banks is eagerly used by cyclists and cycling tourists. Canoeing on the Dender is accessible to all paddlers. \nWhile exploring the river by canoe\, one of our skilled guides will introduce you to the art of canoe tripping. You’ll see beautiful scenery\, perhaps view some wildlife and learn fundamental paddling\, portaging and safety skills. \nFind out more
