Trip Overview

Kayak trip from Crew Green to Frankwell (Shrewsbury).

Easy entrance and exit to the water. Mostly high banks, so not many places to stop, until you get closer to Shrewsbury (apart from Montford Bridge). The river is currently very shallow in places and you may need to get out in the eater for a few metres.

Lots, of wild life, Swans, Ducks, Kingfishers, Herons etc..

Not troubled by fishermen and you wont see many people until you approach Shrewsbury.

Gear Notes

Perception Dancer + Schlegel Duralen paddle

Conditions

Warm but windy (astern)

Portage Notes

None - BUT the river is shallow in places ATM and so you need to push or get out for a few meres.
