Trip Reports

This page links to reports for trips organised by the club.

We also enjoy local, one-day paddles and have fun learning and practicing a wide range of kayaking skills.

For a quick overview of possible places for paddles check out Paddling Trails South Australia. It contains comprehensive trail information (including maps) of the best places to paddle across South Australia.
