- Classic Canoe Expedition
5-day canoeing trips through the Great Glen Way. The Great Glen Way is an ultra-classic canoe journey from Fort William on the Scottish East coast, through the outstanding loch, canals and river systems of the Great Glen to Inverness on the West. This 5-day, 60 mile, adventure is a must for beginners and experienced paddlers looking to explore this beautiful part of Scotland.
During our 5-day canoe expedition, we will navigate the Caledonian Canal and some of Scotland’s most well-know lochs, including paddling the length of Loch Ness. We will camp and cook on the banks of these waterways, although there is also an option to add indoor accommodation to your trip.
On the first day of your trip, we will collect you in our minibus from a prearranged location, and drive you to Fort William located on the West Coast of Scotland. We will provide you with all the equipment that you need, pack our equipment into our Canadian canoes and begin our adventure.
Over the course of the expedition, we will help you develop the skills and techniques required to control the canoe. We will also support you with any camp craft that might be new to you or your group to ensure that you have the very best adventure possible.

The approach that we take to the experiences that we provide, and the business that we run, is that of sustainability, and an unapologetic quest for quality.
For us at Intrepidus Outdoors, we recognise that our experiences kayaking in clean rivers, surfing on unpolluted beaches and climbing frozen waterfalls have contributed to who we are as people. Therefore, protecting the planet so that the next generation of adventurers can have their own experiences, is hugely important for us. We believe that for people, communities and businesses to make the choice to minimise their impact on our planet, they must first value the planet that we have. We feel that the best way for people to value our blue planet, is to have first hand quality experiences in nature. They can then see the beauty of a forest, feel the power of an ocean and learn to love what is outside our towns and cities, so that they then fight to protect them. We strive to through the products that we deliver make a small difference to peoples understanding of the impact that they have on our world.
