Kayak Beginners Course Level 2 Tirol

17 May 2025 - 18 May 2025

260€

In kayak Beginners Course level 2, the basics are applied and practiced on a river at the second level of difficulty. After a theoretical repetition of the techniques you learned in Beginners Course Level 1, we step on the gas! Rope ferries until you are gliding easily over the current; eddies until your boat goes in as if on rails. The Beginners Course Level 2 offers you a preview of our Advanced 1 course and is the ideal preparation for it.

The aim of the course is to consolidate the basics and gain experience on the river. Even if you have not attended Beginners Course Level 1 with us - but already have a few days of river experience - this is the right course for you.
