M&M trip (Matt & Marc) are running a camping weekend trip to the south of Wales looking to paddle grade 3 rivers around the Brecon Beacons area in October (This could be changed to September)
I'm currently scouting rivers in South Wales in preparation for my summer coaching season. I will hopefully have a good understanding of the area by September/October.
I plan to find a campsite central to the Tawe/Usk/Taff/Afan which will be our base and give best potential for grade 3 paddling if there is water without travelling too far.
Paddlers best suited to this trip would be anyone comfortable paddling on Grade 2 (3) in kayak as a minimum, with some experience paddling on continuous Grade 3. Or anyone who will have been on most Intro to WW sessions at Jackfield/Llangollen throughout the summer. Some LowerTryweryn trips would be a good gauge to what might be expected in the Beacons.
Definite plans will be finalised mid summer with regards to campsite, dates and location.
Who want to join us paddling somewhere different? If your unsure if this trip is for you, get in touch, you will find me at most club sessions over the summer.
