Try SUP for a challenge
Bored of flat water? Have a go paddle boarding down the easy section from Kingussie for a fun new challenge, great fun with a stiff southwest wind blowing you downstream you hardly need to paddle.
If there's a few of you why not take the jumbo and have a laugh all the way down working as a team for the day. 4 - 5 adults max for the jumbo to work best.
