Welcome to SOURCE TO SEA kayak school
With us you learn kayaking! For more than 10 years we have specialized in white water kayak courses. What started as a small company, has now - thanks to many good ideas and our motivated and young team - developed into one of the most famous kayak schools in Europe. We accompany you from the first paddle stroke to the heavy white water! Over the years we have developed a very targeted course concept: Whether in Tyrol or at one of our camps in Corsica, on the Soca, in Norway, in France, in Piedmont, Switzerland or in Zambia - with us you will further your kayaking skills and get to know many rivers and regions along the way.
Our kayak school and store are located directly on the shores of Lake Natterer near Innsbruck. Here you will find everything you need for kayaking! Due to the ideal location of our store, you can try out test boats, paddles and co on one of the nearby rivers or directly at the Natterer See. Our team of enthusiastic paddlers will answer all your questions about equipment and material, give you technical tips or advise you on our courses. Come by, we are looking forward to you!
Our team? No, your team!
