Zorbing

Zorbing is back at the Bushcraft Show 2019 offering visitors the chance to run on water in our giant zorbs. The challenge is to stay standing as long as possible. A great ‘heart racing’ activity and fun for all the family.

Price £5 for 5 mins per person

Giant Stand Up Paddleboard

Our giant SUP’s are great fun for families and individuals alike and offer the chance to use the same paddling skills as a team on our giant SUP’s that can hold 6-8 people. Come and have a go on these giant paddling SUP’s.

Giant SUP Race:
We will hold a giant Giant SUP Race on Saturday at 4pm which will be free for people to take part. Be warned this may result in getting a little damp.

Cardboard Box Boat Race

The showcase fun activity of the Bushcraft Show Watersports is the Card Board Box Boat Race where teams pit their wits and ingenuity against each other for the race in cardboard box rafts. The winner is the one to finish the course afloat in the fastest time but bragging rights may yet go to the team that makes us laugh the most.

Entry – Free to enter with prizes – please preregister @ info@canoetrail.co.uk

This is held on Sunday at 4pm
