Kayak expedition
The landscape from the water, at paddle pace
And bring something to protect your gear: on the water, everything ends up a little wet.
A kayak expedition means discovering a landscape from the water, at paddle pace. You follow coastlines, cross lakes or run rivers, stopping where trails don't reach: coves, wild shores, small islands. With a guide, you learn the right strokes, read weather and currents, and can focus on what matters: the glide, the silence, the horizon.
Depending on the format, an expedition lasts a day or several, with nights in a bivouac or on-shore accommodation. Sea kayaking calls for attention to conditions; rivers and lakes can offer calmer routes.
Before choosing, look at the type of water, daily distance, experience required and equipment provided.
