About
Adventure Hunter organises outdoor activities on Derwentwater and Bassenthwaite Lake, specialising in guided kayaking and canoe trips. Known for stable canoe rafts in windy conditions and patient instruction for beginners, they take groups across the water to spots like St Herbert’s Island. Guides share local knowledge of the lakes and ghylls, with equipment provided. Some visitors combine paddling with walks or coffee stops by the shore. The Keswick Launch landing point at Ladore is a quieter starting location away from busier sections of the lake.
Customer Reviews
Amazing Kayaking Experience – Highly Recommended! Had an absolutely fantastic time on our recent kayaking trip! Our instructor Duane was brilliant and made sure everyone felt comfortable on the water. His guidance and encouragement made the whole experience even more enjoyable. All the equipment was provided and everything was well organized. Overall, a fantastic day out, and we’ll definitely be back for another trip. Highly recommended!
Brilliant day out and energy spent ! birthday fun, me and my girlfriend took a canoe out on derentwater for a generous hour and had the best time. Comfortable equipment and beautiful scenery, we were sailing. Dwayne and Wes were very helpful, friendly and were readily available when we contacted them to extend our session. Clear instructions, tips and a dry bag to protect our belongings. Would recommend and will be returning to try out other activities! Thank you for a lovely day .
I have used Adventure hunter several times to help me progress from very basic canoe skills on Derwentwater & Bassenthwaite to navigating our way down grade 2/3 rivers. The tutoring from both Duane & Wes has always been clear & calm. I’m always really impressed with how well they judge the rivers & take the time to point out potential dangers & options on how to navigate them. I’m looking forward to using them again & progressing on to more challenging rivers.
