South Walsham Guided Canoe Trails


Discover the Secrets of
South Walsham Broad

Join us on one of our guided canoe trails of Fairhaven and South Walsham Broads

From our launch point at South Walsham staithe (not far from Fairhaven Woodland and Water Garden), the adventure starts with a paddle around the private Fairhaven broad. We then sneak through the secret hidden dyke running through Fairhaven Gardens to South Walsham Broad inner and outer broads. The trail lasts between two and two and a half hours and usually will take in South Walsham inner and outer broads and Fleet Dyke (weather conditions dependant).

This is a great trail for nature enthusiasts as the area is teaming with wildlife with glebes, cormorants, bitterns and even the elusive otter being regularly spotted here.

"We (my husband and our 2 grandchildren) spent an afternoon with you. I am writing to say how much we enjoyed our trip on your canoes. Our Instructor, Will was super, very helpful and very patient. Will had the short straw as he had me with him and I have never canoed before but he was charming. He was extremely patient and caring regarding our two young grandchildren and he paid them a very nice compliment when we returned back to shore. Also thanks to all his colleagues who helped him. I would certainly recommend you and we hope to go canoeing with you again. Please give Will our best wishes."

South Walsham Broad is notorious for suffering with Blue Green Algae, particularly in warmer periods. This can cause sickness in humans and potentially death in dogs. Due to this there will be times when we are unable to offer Canoe Hire/Trails from this venue.
