Come and try rowing on the Caledonian Canal for a break into the calming Blue Space on the edge of the city. This rowing taster session will run through all you need to know to start rowing, through a quick introduction on the rowing machine before you get in a boat to try it yourself. You will be walked through everything by coaches that will work to your pace, ensuring you feel confident to take each next step.

All specialist equipment will be provided by Inverness Rowing Club, and you will be sent information in advance about what is recommended to bring and wear for the sessions. The boats used will be stable training boats which are perfect for new rowers to learn in and explore the canal.

Once out on the water, the canal is an idyllic spot to connect with nature, and take a moment to focus on connecting with yourself as you learn a new skill. Sessions will last 2 hours, including a session introduction, time on the rowing machine, and around 1 hour on the water.

NOTE: We ask that all participants feel comfortable swimming 50m in light clothing.
