Inverpolly Canoe Expedition 2017
Our Canoe adventure brings us right up into the North West Highlands of Scotland. Our journey takes us through a system of glacial lochs which allows us access to some of the most beautiful and remote peaks on the British Isles. This truly is a wilderness experience, loading up our open-canoes with all the supplies we need for the week and camping out in one of the most beautiful areas of Scotland.
