Story

Kayak the Great Glen returns in July 2019! The team will spend 4 full days kayaking from where the canal joins Fort William on the west coast of Scotland, to Inverness in the east. The trail covers a total of 60 miles, including 22 miles of canal and 4 natural freshwater lochs, and Loch Ness.

They will be travelling in double kayaks with one wheelchair user in each kayak, crossing lochs, negotiating the water and weather, and staying in campsites along the route.

Please help us to raise £15,000 to support Back Up! This money will be used to help transform the lives of people affected by spinal cord injury across the UK.
