Each canoe seats two adults and one child comfortably. That makes it a good choice for families or small groups who want to paddle together rather than on separate craft. If you are a larger party, book more than one canoe so everyone has space and the boat stays stable and safe on the water. ### Are dogs allowed? Yes, dogs are welcome on Canadian canoe hire when they are calm around water and under control. Please tell us when you book so staff can advise on suitability for the chosen loch and conditions. Bring a towel for your dog and expect them to get wet. Keep leads and waste bags handy for shore stops. ### What hire lengths are available? You can choose a half day of about 4 hours or a full day of about 8 hours. Longer sessions suit picnic stops, photo breaks, and exploring further along the shore. Pick the option that matches your plans and daylight. Staff can help you choose a route that fits the time you have booked. ### Can the canoe be delivered? Yes. You can meet at the Callander shop or choose delivery to Loch Lubnaig, Loch Venachar, Loch Voil, Strathyre Cabins, Loch of Menteith, Monocle Moore, or Tymore for an additional delivery fee shown at booking. Select your meeting point when you book. You will get clear instructions so you can start at the water with less carrying and setup. ### Do I need canoeing experience? No. Canadian canoes are stable and suitable for beginners. You will receive a short briefing on paddling together, basic steering, and simple safety points before you leave. If you are new to canoeing, start on calmer water and keep the first outing shorter. Ask for a sheltered route recommendation if the wind is up. ### What should we wear? Wear clothes you can get wet and soft-soled footwear that will stay on in the canoe. Avoid flip-flops. A waterproof layer helps if it is breezy or showery. Optional water shoes and dry bags are available as add-ons. In cooler weather consider warmer layers and a change of clothes for after the paddle. ### What happens in bad weather? Conditions on lochs can change quickly. Light rain is often fine, but strong wind, poor visibility, or unsafe water may mean a different launch point or a rearrange. If your hire cannot run safely you will be contacted with options. Safety always comes before keeping to the original plan. ### What is included in the hire? The canoe, two paddles, buoyancy aids for the standard crew, and route tips are included. That covers the essentials for a self-guided day on the water. You can add water shoes, childrens wet shoes, a waterproof phone case, a dry bag, or an extra buoyancy aid at checkout if you need them. ### Is there a minimum age? Children can join when seated with adults in the canoe and able to follow safety instructions. Everyone in the boat should be a confident swimmer. Please share ages when you book so the right buoyancy aids and advice can be prepared for your group. ### Where do we meet and park? Unless delivery is booked, meet at 6 Leny Road, Callander, FK17 8BA for kit, briefing, and launch advice. The shop is the usual collection point. Parking is available in and around Callander. In peak season arrive a little early so you are not rushed at the start of your hire. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/pic1-4.jpg - **Gallery image count**: 4 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
