Canoe Hire

equipment hireAt Explore Highland we are able to outfit your next canoe adventure. From a single solo canoe or tandem canoe to a full fleet of boats, we can help. By providing only the best equipment and support, you can be sure that your hire equipment will really make your paddling adventure holiday that extra bit special.

When out paddling under the Scottish Outdoor Access Code, you must take responsibility for your own actions on and off the water. We can help by providing you with our local knowledge, responsible access and safety information before you head off on your adventure.

As a responsible company, boat hire is only available to those with some paddling experience. For those who have no experience or looking at venturing into unknown waters, we are happy to help and provide a qualified guide to look after you.

Alternatively we can offer a half day safety training session for those wishing to take boats out without any experience.

Please see our Hire Agreement Form for full details.
