Kayaking is the easiest way to get active at Loch Insh, no experience necessary.
Enjoy our enclosed safety area on our new sit on top kayaks until you get the hang of it.
With a little more confidence venture out and explore the loch.
For those more experienced we have a fleet of traditional, closed cockpit river kayaks. Perfect for learning river techniques and of course rolling.
Our kayaks are available to hire by the day or week if your planning your own expedition. Only a security deposit required.
You can stay on the loch and just rent the boat for the day. Off the loch you can still access 4 miles upstream into the Insh Marshes Nature Reserve the biggest wetland of this type in Europe where you can see lots of wildlife
You can travel up to 1 mile downstream too to visit the two islands on Loch Insh where you can see the resident osprey most days.
