Another Big Year for us at Ty Nant Outdoors, This little Business takes an ever-changing path and each year. Our new website has been working well and having just updated for 2018 in a fraction of the time enjoying the benefits now of the hard work put in earlier in the year. A streamlined office experience.
British Canoeing Courses
British Canoeing courses remain the heart and sole of my year’s work. I have become a course director of Paddlesports Instructor (Level 1), Paddlesports Leader Award Assesment and the new Coach Award courses. These compliment the Rescue and Leadership courses I have been running for years and help make the suite of British Canoeing Courses more viable for both Ty Nant Outdoors and my freelance work up and down the country. I love helping the future of this sport develop and progress.
Llangollen Paddlesports
Discover Whitewater Kayaking and Pontcysyllte Aqueduct Canoe Tours have been as busy as ever. Lovely activities for groups of all ages and backgrounds compliment the professional development we do for the industry. The team we have working on these never fail to impress. This year I made the big decision to stop running our own Whitewater Rafting, it felt a bit wrong but such a great stress-free decision allowing me to spend more time with my young family in Holiday periods. HAPPY DAYS
Attingham Park Sessions
The contract at the National Trusts Attingham Park this summer was a bit of a washout if I am honest, as was most peoples August. the jury is out for next year. I love the setting and paddling up the River Tern is a spectacular way to enjoy the Park, however, some changes will need to be made to make this more viable for next year.
Thank you so much for all of your continued support. I would also like to thank All our team and companies that support us. Firstly Peak UK as they have been the biggest support to me for so many years. New relationships with Hou Canoes, Palm, Dagger, System X and VE paddles.
Anyways I wish you all Seasons Greetings, have a great New Year and be sure to book with us in 2018. Below you will find some links to more info and a great offer on Courses. Like our Facebook page to keep up to date and get regular offers.

Andy organised a bespoke 2 day white water trip for us. We both had very little previous kayaking experience and none on white water and Andy tailored the weekend to our needs, making it a good mix of technical work and fun rapids. Andy was a great bloke, very conscientious and knowledgeable and made us feel safe while encouraging us to challenge ourselves. Would fully recommend.
Bespoke 2 day white water kayaking
An excellent family day kayaking. Andy was great with the boys and we all had a fabulous day learning about whitewater and increasing our confidence on the water.
Visited April 2017
Introduction to white water kayaking
Upon arrival, we had a warm welcome from our two instructors. Friendly and relaxed but they certainly know their stuff. Warwick’s CV of expeditions is as long as your arm and there is no doubting his knowledge. The pace of the morning suited us really well. We had an awesome time and opened up a new avenue of future adventures. A great experience from booking through to debrief!
Awesome half-day session with Warwick
Went white water kayaking today with my dad, who hasn’t been for 30 years! Andy was very attentive, and my dad and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We will be back!
Amazing kayaking experience- Ted
We traveled to Llangollen for a hen do with a difference. We booked to go white water rafting with Andy at Ty Nant Outdoors. I was well impressed with the communications beforehand, emails always answered or phonecalls returned. On the day, they guys were really friendly and made us all feel at ease. Clear and concise instructions given before rafting and we had great fun in the rafts doing games as we went down the river. I would recommend this to everybody, we hope to return with our children …

Alongside many other companies Ty Nant could be mistaken for just another outdoor company.
However that just wouldn’t do them justice! The level of detail that goes into everything from the booking to the equipment and instructional input is excellent.
The kit is new and they have lots of sizes available. They had different models of Kayak and paddles to try out and little things like a trailer to get changed in (which made a big but yet often forgotten difference!) I’ve gotten changed in …

Well what a day, took my 13 yr old with ADHD and ASD, didn’t know what to expect! Was met by a fabulous instructor called Naomi who was just perfect! 3 hours on the water and we both loved every minute of it! Nothing was too much for her even when my son tried to tip her in, can’t thank these guys enough! Lovely day and will definitely return, Naomi was a top instructor :-)”

I made a general enquiry to Andy about courses and from the outset really friendly and informative. Decided on the WWSR course, the way he delivered it was awesome – we didn’t sit in one place or around a table for too long, we’re kayakers and most the course was delivered in kayaks or on the bank. A really friendly course covering a lot more than just the BCU prospectus.
Looking forward to booking my next course with Andy.
WWSR Course
We visited Llangollen just to canoe over the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct with Ty Nant and it was a fabulous morning – well worth the stop. The entire paddle was enjoyable and the instructor friendly and helpful. The trip was tailored to match our abilities. Couldn’t recommend this highly enough if you are in the area.

We had age ranges from 65 down to 4. Brilliant trip organised by Ty Nant outdoors. Very professional outfit, great people, Andy and Warwick friendly and great teachers. Could not ask for a better day. Would recommend it to all.

Plenty of communication before the booking and lots conversations over the phone to talk about what our group wanted out of the day even before we got there was reassuring and had a very personal feel to it.
A great days kayaking tuition at an affordable price. What I asked for was delivered and more, the group had requested some tailored coaching working on all areas from confidence to body posture, to paddle placement. Andy quickly identified our skill level and began to give us the coachin…
