Canoe Hire PolandDownload our Booking Form (pdf) or contact us for Booking Form (MS Word) Adventure Poland offer several different canoes and kayaks for hire for use on any of the many rivers and beautiful local lakes in western Poland. The most commonly paddled rivers, we hire canoes and kayaks for, are currently the River Warta (Warthe) and River Obra in Lubuskie, and the River Drawa in Western Pomerania, although, we are able to provide canoes, kayaks and equipment for any river in the west of Poland. While the most interesting and picturesque lakes for paddling are probably in and around Lubniewice or Pszczew. We hire canoes, kayaks, and camping equipment to paddlers of all ages and nationalities, all year round for canoe and kayak expeditions and trips. Types of Craft available for hire: Open canoes - Our most popular choice for visitors looking for a real expedition experience. Open canoes can be used on lakes and most stretches of the rivers in western Poland. With its large carrying capacity the open canoe is probably the best boat for exploring well off the beaten track, longer canoe expeditions, or for family river and lake outings. We have four distinct types of open canoe available for hire. Our Canadian-style open canoes are ideally suited to river and/or lake expeditions in our part of Poland. Old Town Discovery Canadian Canoe (twin seater) The classic American-made Open Canadian Canoe! The Old Town Discovery is extremely tough, rugged and virtually unsinkable, as well as being stable and easy to handle. The SuperLink 3-layer hull construction makes it perfect for all-around use. An easy handling, river touring canoe ideal for paddling the rivers of Central Europe. Possibly the ultimate expedition craft. The Old Town is our Top-of-the Range hire canoe.
Weight of canoe: 36 kgs. Length of canoe: 4.8 m Width of canoe: 0.90m.
'Riviera' Open Canoe (up to 3 people) The French-made 'Riviera' Canadian-style Open Canoe has a tough, durable Polyethylene construction. This stiff hulled design makes it perfect for both river and lake exploration. This is a three seater canoe, but it can be paddled by one or two people without problems.
Weight of canoe 43 kgs. Length of canoe 4.64m Width of canoe 0.90m More photographs.
Polish 'Canadian-style' Canoe (up to 2 person)
This Canadian-style canoe seats two in comfort, looks very cool, and is virtually unsinkable! Weight of canoe 30 kgs. Length of canoe 4.2m Width of canoe 0.90m - More photos.
Touring Kayak Canoe (up to 2 person)
Touring Kayak Canoes - Rugged, lightweight, French-made twin seat touring kayaks. Professional, versatile, kayak canoes. Perfect for canoe expeditions and trips. Weight: 33 kgs. Length: 3.9m Width: 0.83m. More pictures of our touring kayak canoes.
Sit-on-top Kayak. The open cockpit of the Sit-on-top Kayak allows the paddler to enter and exit the kayak easily from the river bank, dock, or water, and paddle without feeling confined. In a sit-on-top, you can safely enjoy all the pleasures of kayaking without having to learn difficult self-rescue maneuvers. People of all ages and skill levels can feel like experts in a sit-on-top. Sitontops are a good choice for shorter river expeditions and stretches with fallen trees and other obstacles to negotiate. Our twin-seater sit-on-top kayaks can be paddled solo without any problems.
Ranger Lake Expedition Canoe/Kayak - A popular choice for lake exploration. An excellent boat for novices and experts alike. Lightweight and stable twin seat pneumatic construction with back supports and heavy duty polyester outer hull. The perfect multipurpose craft for exploring Polish waters in a leisurely, but, adventurous way. Weighs less than 12 kgs, but has a capacity of 165 kgs. As you can see from the above photo a lot of gear these canoes can be loaded in them! See more photographs at canoe expeditions.
