Paddling through the wildlife sanctuary and around to Tranby House is just a little taste of what will unfold along today's section on the Swan.
During our time on the water, we detour off the main flow of the Swan, discovering birdlife flourishing in wetlands and a wildlife sanctuary known as Kuljak Island, which is located in the middle of the river - the Island was once used as a rubbish dump but has been rehabilitated into a wildlife sanctuary. Another highlight of today's paddle is a stop off at the Historical Landmark, Tranby House where your Adventurous Women Host will be serving up a yummy picnic lunch. The paddle will then continue until the point where the river begins to widen ... Another fabulous day of kayaking and exploring!
The distance of the Paddle is 7km and should be achievable for anyone with a reasonable level of fitness. No prior kayaking experience is required.

You may choose to just take part in this ONE section only, OR you may choose to continue the following month and complete the next section on the river, starting off where we finish (as we're doing a different section each month until we reach Coode Street in South Perth). You may even keep going each month to complete all five sections, the choice is yours .. there's no pressure (just good times) and there are a good range of paddling experiences to be enjoyed, either as a one off .... or more than one if you wish.
If you really want to complete the whole sectional paddle over the 5 months, but some of the dates don't suit or you're not able to commit right now, then let us know by emailing sue@adventurouswomen.com.au. We will then place your name on a list to be notified when we next run that section so you'll have first dibs prior to it's release to the general public.

A great weekend with lovely people and lots of challenging 4wd adventures
Brillant weekend full of challenges, laughs, yummy food, divine scenery and I just loved it.
A wonderful weekend: friendly facilitators, lovely venue, yummy food and great events. I felt comfortable and included. The highlights for me were: High Tea, Chi Ball Yoga, Sound Journey meditation and the friendly women in attendance.
WOW a beautiful relaxing weekend with great yoga and meditation sessions (thank you Bettina), delicious meals throughout (thank you Sue) and ending on a beautiful sound healing session by Nicole. The experience was made all the more special with the beautiful group of ladies we shared it with, can’t wait for the next weekend retreat 😊
