Wolvercote loop

July 4, 2020

This is a flatwater trip open to fully paid up H.C.C. members only. You must have your own kit.
An 8 mile loop around Port Meadow near Oxford.
The trip starts from the Wolvercote bathing place on the Thames, paddling downstream to join the Oxford canal. On the canal we portage 3 locks, the last being the start of Duke’ Cut which takes us to Wolvercote Mill stream and back onto the Thames. There are two further river locks which we may be able to pass through subject to permission from the lock keeper.
The trip is suitable for Open boats, Kayaks and SUP’s.
Meeting point:
Wolvercote bathing place

What three words: ///areas.jams.beard
**IMPORTANT** There is a height restriction in place at the entrance to the car park.
If the demand is high we will attempt to run two groups of 1 leader to 5 paddlers. Each group will set off at different times to maintain social distancing to keep within government guidelines.
