**Wild Women Paddle Retreat**
Escape and recharge with our day paddle adventure & retreat along the beautiful River Way in Surrey. You’ll paddle 9 km from Godalming Wharf surrounded by lush greenery and maybe spotting the odd duckling or heron along the way, all while honing your paddle skills. Connect with like-minded women on this unique adventure, forge new friendships, and create lasting memories.
This experience goes beyond the paddle though as there is an invitation to join in a guided mindfulness practice while floating on your board. Tune into the sounds of nature while letting go of the daily grind and be fully present on the water. Your hosts will also bring in a sprinkling of nature connection principles with a a bit of gentle playfulness along the way.
Whether you’re an experienced paddler or just love being on the water, this retreat is all about fun, laughter, and embracing the wild spirit within you.
Your hosts are:
Clare
ASI Level 2 SUP Instructor, Blue Health Coach, Nature Facilitator, Mindfulness Leader and Climate Change Coach. Clare is passionate about connecting others with nature to understand our interconnectedness with our wild spaces. She aims to guide you to spot ‘glimmers’ in nature that help you to self regulate and reduce stress.
Jo
Jo is a Paddle Uk Instructor and level 3 coach and has worked with Roar Outdoor for 3 years. Passionate about getting people out on the water and enjoying nature.

What to wear:
Appropriate paddle clothing for the day depending on the weather. A cooler May day might need a wetsuit (which we have to hire at Godalming for £5 if you don’t have one).

You will need some footwear, such as wet shoes, flip flops or crocs as we go over some locks with some stoney pathways.

Food and drink:
We don’t provide food to keep costs down and so you can bring what you like to eat. We will have at least 2 stops for snacks and lunch. Bring a picnic and extra snacks. Bring a large water bottle or a couple of small bottles to keep hydrated. The end point, Dapdune Wharf, has a tea room.
Loo stops:
There are toilets at the beginning and end. Along the way there are places for a nature wee! Half way at the lunch stop there is a public toilet about a 10 minute walk away if nature wees aren’t your thing!
Paddling Ability/ Fitness:
We expect that women joining the trip have paddled before but the trip is suitable for all levels. We will be at a leisurely pace to enable us to chat and take in the lovely surroundings. You should be able to swim 50m.
Weather:
We will paddle in all weathers. Sun is great. But we also love paddling in the rain. The only exception is that if the weather makes the paddle unsafe e.g. strong winds, flooded river. In which case we will cancel and refund you or reschedule.

Please contact us before booking on if you have additional needs or medical conditions that we should be aware of so we can put in appropriate adjustments.
