About Us



Norfolk Broads Camping Canoe Trails - 1, 2* night canoe trails exploring some of Norfolk's most beautiful rivers. At the end of each day relaxing with friends and family to discuss the day’s adventures at one of our campsites in the heart of the countryside.

Of course we can arrange extra nights and days for you; it’s just a case of talking to us. - TheCanoeMan in the Norfolk Broads, Broads National Park, England, UK

"I just wanted to say thank you for an excellent trip this weekend.  Of course the scenery and the weather were perfect, but we were very impressed with the service provided by Glen who set us off paddling.  His care and attention to detail were much appreciated.  Thank you."

Sample Itinerary - River Bure

This route is for people who like Adventure and are not afraid of getting stuck in. It is nearly entirely on non-navigable water, meaning you are highly unlikely to see another craft, except may be the odd canoe. But there are a total of 4 short portages (a very short section where you have to get out and carry your boat around an immoveable obstruction such as a lock or weir). The longest of these is some 150m with most being 50m or less.

Norfolk Broads Camping Canoe Trails - Sample Itinerary - River Bure1st Night: Arrive at our campsite, conveniently placed for an excellent pub serving good food and beer. If you require food after 9.00pm please contact us. Set up camp and settle in for the night.

1st Day: Is a relatively short paddle with a lovely lunchtime walk to one off the best pubs in the area which takes approximately half hour each way. The route entails a couple of smaller dykes that may/ may not have overhanging trees. Dependent on water conditions and time of the year it cannot be ruled out that they may be the necessity at some point to get your feet wet! In order to drag the boat over a particular shallow area.

The trip however is beautiful taking you out into the wilds of the Norfolk countryside with all the peace and tranquillity you can handle. The river is generally beautifully clear with a vast array of wildlife from kingfishers to occasionally the elusive otter. Looking over the edge of your boat is like looking into your own personal fish tank. At the finish point you lock the boat up with the cable provided and head to the campsite for an evening of good food and relaxation. The campsite has full facilities including showers and of course the pub.

2nd Day: The next day your return to the river to continue your journey through the beautiful Broadland countryside. With the assistance of the map provided your will be able to work your way through the Broads, with the possibility of a pub lunch at the halfway point. As the day draws to a close you will meet at the pre-arranged point to be transported back to the campsite and your vehicle.

2-Day Canoe Camping Includes:
  • 2 Days canoe hire
  • 2 nights campsite fees
  • Transport to start of trail and collection at end of trail
