Ideal in an easterly breeze for (broadly) a headwind out and a tailwind home, although this route does meander north and south a fair bit so isn’t too wind critical. Trees by the riverside generally offer good protection from crosswinds, so southerly and northerly are good too. Not great for westerlies as you’ll need to graft back against the wind and flow. The route out is with the stream, so expect to work a little harder coming home – definitely best with light flow. Check stream and wind conditions via our SUP weather page…
