A great day out on the Tweed. Craig from Biggar Adventures was an excellent guide for the trip and full of stories and info. A very relaxed trip thanks to him. Equipment all Old Town canoes in Good condition. A great intro to the Tweed Canoe trail.
This was a fantastic experience for my son and I on his 13th birthday. The sun was shining, the view was stunning and Craig was so friendly, organised and patient, it made the whole experience really special. Thank you so much. The rest of the family want to come next…
We were a family of four and wanted a relaxed but fun experience and we got it. Craig was patient and really helpful, especially with a low river and getting stuck. We had fun, lots of chatter and laughter.
Craig was great - engaging, knowledgable and funny. He coped very well with a large group of widely varying abilities!
Great day canoeing. Craig was very helpful. Very good experience.
Caitlin was fantastic really helpful, patient and calming would highly recommend
Journey down the River Tweed and explore the beautiful Scottish Borders from a new perspective. This canoeing session is ideal for beginners, with stable, spacious boats that make it easy to relax and enjoy the trip. Whether you're with friends, family, or colleagues, this paddle from Stobo to Peebles offers a perfect opportunity for a fun and sociable experience.
Your adventure begins in Stobo with a briefing from our experienced instructors, who will guide you through the basics of canoeing. After the briefing, you will set off along the River Tweed, paddling through calm waters and enjoying the surrounding countryside. The canoes are designed for comfort and stability, ensuring you can focus on taking in the scenery while paddling with a partner, making it a fun and sociable experience.
The trip lasts around 3 hours, with a mid-point stop for a break and an opportunity to enjoy some snacks. This stop allows you to appreciate the beauty of the area before continuing your paddle to Peebles. If you can arrange transport to return to Stobo, that's fantastic, but don't worry if not—we can assist with transport options.
The River Tweed winds through the gorgeous Scottish Borders, offering a calm and scenic setting for your canoeing adventure.
Starting at Stobo, you will travel along the river, taking in beautiful views of green hills and tranquil landscapes before reaching Peebles, a charming town that marks the end of your journey.
Please note: The guide can transport up to five people back to the meeting point at the end of the trip to collect their car if needed.
