Stand Up Paddle Boarding

Try it, love it - stand up paddle boarding is the fastest growing watersport in the UK. Join the adventure at the Galloway Activity Centre where you can either hire a board or take part in a lesson from one of our experienced instructors. From taster sessions for beginners to your own personalised Widerness trip, there's no better place to SUP than the calm waters of Loch Ken.
