Willowgate to Newburgh Kayak Tour – Perth and Kinross, United Kingdom

EXPERIENCE:

Our Willowgate to Newburgh tour does exactly what it says on the tin! Starting at Willowgate we’ll journey down past all of the traditional fishing bothies, past Elcho Castle, which you’ll be able to spot through the trees, and continue past the mouth of the River Earn, until finally we see Mugdrum Island, in all it’s glory with Newburgh tucked just behind.

The stretch of river between Willowgate and Newburgh is packed full of interesting history and nature and has a very different feel to the river higher up. As the reed bed starts to appear about half way through the journey, you’ll have a good realisation of the scale of the biggest reedbed in Europe. As we get closer to the River Earn, the Tay suddenly changes personality, from a small river meandering through the hills, to a large, wide estuary making it’s way out to sea.
