Guidebook to canoeing across a large area of southern Scotland and northern England, UK. It provides detailed descriptions of the rivers of the Scottish Borders, Northumberland, Durham and Yorkshire down to the Aire.
The coast is covered from St Abbs Head in Scotland to Flamborough Head in Yorkshire, and includes the delectable Farne Islands, renowned for their wildlife. This book caters for all paddlers, from those who enjoy calm waters to the daredevil waterfall flyers.
Nick Doll read medicine at Newcastle University and took up canoeing there. It is said that the only life he ever saved was that of a drowning canoeist by hooking him out of the River Inn with the handle of his umbrella! He has paddled throughout Britain and Europe, but with a particular emphasis on the area covered by this guide.
