Had a really wonderful experience renting a canoe for 3 hours on the River Barrow. There’s a clearly marked route along the canal and river, which made it perfect for first-timers like us. Huge thanks to Abby and Rachael, who were incredibly helpful and made the whole experience amazing!

I highly recommend Go With The Flow River Adventures. I had such a lovely time. Clashganny is a beautiful area and wonderful amenity. Charlie is an excellent guide, very informative and interesting. The nature is stunning and Bloom is a delight. Our family group ranged in age from 12 to 52 and we all loved it and will definitely go again.
