What is called canoeing?
Canoeing is an activity which involves paddling a canoe with a single-bladed paddle. In some parts of Europe, canoeing refers to both canoeing and kayaking, with a canoe being called an ‘open canoe’ or Canadian. A kayak has a double bladed paddle whereas a canoe has a single bladed paddle. For our sessions at New Forest Activities, we use traditional canadian-style canoes and these are two, three and sometimes even four seater boats.
