Go With The Flow

BaseGlamp is part of the unique experiences offered by Charlie Horan of ‘Go With The Flow‘ Canoeing Adventures:

“We started with an informal club in the pub. Heading out on Sunday afternoons, discovering, exploring and checking out new routes. We, the lads and girls and myself had some spectacular afternoons on the little Brosna between Roscrea and Birr and coming down the Delour river off the Slieve Bloom hills. Occasionally we might have had to check out the facilities in local hostelries. But stopping at what is know as the basin and shooting the weir where the Delour and Nore river converge was everybodys favourite. In big water the shoot was thrilling, a real adrenaline rush and that’s what got me hooked.

That was back in the early 90’s and that is exactly what I did. While doing my instructorship I discovered many new rivers and exciting routes I could brings groups. I slowly assembled enough equipment to start Celtic Canadian Canoeing and we were off. The fun and success of those early years was really spurred me on and very quickly Go with the Flow – River Adventures emerged.

I am as excited now about taking a group on the river as I was 20 years ago. I just can’t wait. Every day is different on the river. The level of the water, the colour of the trees, the standing wave at the bottom of the weir, the swim down the rapids, will the otter be out, will we see the Kingfisher diving. If I’m really lucky I will have one of my sons or my daughter paddling and helping out. Yep – it’s a family business now.

So the story continues and I would love for you to be a part of it. When are you going to open up that sense of wonder, fun and excitement, have a few thrills and spills, get back to nature and explore the treasures of our beautiful safe rivers. How about next weekend … my name is Charlie Horan, go on, give me a call!“
