Join me on an epic 6-day solo canoe trip along the River Spey in Scotland, as I attempt to traverse 123km from Kingussie to Spey Bay. With 5 nights of wild camping and canoeing, I'll take you on a journey through some of Scotland's most beautiful and ancient forests, showcasing dream campsites that await to be discovered.
Along the way, keep your eyes peeled for the incredible wildlife that calls the River Spey home, from salmon swimming upstream to spawn, to majestic deer, herons, and even the endangered freshwater pearl mussel.
Fighting the elements of wind and rain, and navigating whitewater rapids and fallen trees, will be part of the challenge. But with both my trusty hammock and tent, I'll take advantage of the stunning landscape and find the perfect spots to set up camp.
I hope you'll join me on this truly epic adventure, as we traverse the River Spey and explore Scotland's natural beauty. From the thrill of whitewater rapids to the peace of ancient forests, this journey has something for everyone. So sit back, relax, and let's begin!
Please drop me a comment!
If you have any questions, I'm happy to answer them!
Adventure awaits,
Eze
