The definitive guide to seeing all the wonders of Scotland under
paddle power. Scotland is one of the most appealing destinations
for kayakers, canoeists and paddleboarders from all over the world.
That’s because if there is one country best seen from the water,
it is Scotland. Loch Ness contains more water than all of the
rivers and lakes in England and Wales combined – and there are
27,000 other lochs to explore as well. What’s more, with
125,000km of rivers and 800 islands, there’s always somewhere new
to paddle. And the spectacular Scottish scenery only adds to the
appeal. This book is the complete guide to paddling the wonderfully
varied waterways, lochs, rivers and coasts of Scotland, compiled by
Ally Findlay, a paddleboard instructor and tour guide based in
Glasgow. He covers all regions of Scotland: - South Scotland,
including the coast at Kirkcudbright and Fleet Bay, and inland to
Loch Ken, and the Galloway Canoe Trail - Central Scotland,
including Loch Lomond and the beautiful Trossachs National Park -
East Coast Scotland, including the Forth Bridges - West Coast
Scotland, from the coast at Arasaig to lochs and rivers including
the amazing Rannoch Moor - Scottish Highlands, which become a
magical playground in the northwest following the Inverpoly routes
From short paddles to day trips into the stunning wilderness, this
book covers excursions for all occasions and all levels of ability,
explaining where to begin and what to look out for. Most are well
suited to canoe and kayak, but going further, some are even better
explored standing up on a paddleboard, including cross-Scotland
routes such as the Shin System. With beautiful and evocative
photography, and clear maps, this is the essential guide to seeing
Scotland under paddle power, exploring where to go, how to get
there and what to see en route.
