Winter Paddling

Experience the magic of winter on the tranquil Beaulieu River with this unique guided paddling adventure, offered from November to March. With fewer boats on the water and an abundance of wintering wildlife, this outing invites you into a peaceful, crisp, and atmospheric landscape that feels worlds away from the busy summer season.

Winter paddling offers a completely different perspective of the river—quiet, reflective, and beautifully scenic—making it perfect for anyone seeking a refreshing and memorable outdoor experience.

Before setting out, you’ll meet at our riverside base in Beaulieu to receive your equipment and a short safety briefing. Once on the water, you’ll enjoy a relaxed journey tailored to the season’s calm conditions, with plenty of time to take photos and soak in the winter landscape. Dress warmly and bring a few snug layers—while the air may be crisp, the right preparation ensures a comfortable and enjoyable trip from start to finish. And though British weather can be unpredictable, rest assured: if conditions require us to cancel, you’ll receive a full refund or the option to rebook for another day, ensuring your adventure remains stress-free and unforgettable.
