SUP Highland

The Scottish Highlands is renowned for its stunning beauty. Join us on this three to five-day stand-up paddle tour around the Highlands. Leaving from Inverness each day we’ll head to some of the best locations in the world to paddle. Scenery, wildlife, and maybe a mystical castle or two. What’s not to like.

Each day the group will be given various options depending on local weather conditions and paddler preferences. To increase experience the group may also choose to paddle in different morning and afternoon paddle locations rather than a single full-day paddle. The aim of this adventure is to explore the Highlands from paddleboards, catch a glimpse of the local wildlife, and enjoying time on the water at a leisurely pace.

Paddling locations may include:

  • Loch Ness – monster hunting
  • Moray Firth – dolphin/otter spotting
  • River Beauly – going with the flow
  • Loch Maree
  • Glen Affric

This trip includes:

  • Transport from Inverness each day
  • Guiding/coaching as required
  • SUP board, paddle, and wetsuit as required
  • Action photos taken by your guide during the adventure

This adventure is for paddlers who have a minimum of five days experience stand-up paddling.

Group bookings accepted with three to six paddlers.
