Thankyou to everyone who turned out for the second ever Llangdegfedd AquaPaddle yesterday. It was a brilliant day of watching the racing and then getting out on the water ourselves.

If you took photos, feel free to add them in the comments. I'd love to see them!

Welcome to Aquapaddle Pontypool 🚣‍♀️

We are part of AquaPaddle UK - a free to enter, timed 5km event held around the UK. Our event starts at Pontymoile Basin, on the beautiful Monmouthshire & Brecon canal.

We have onsite parking, toilets and cafe, with a slipway for easy entry to the water. It is open to people who haven't been paddling long, as well as those with years of experience, because the aim is to challenge yourself rather than race others.

If you'd like to take part in an Aquapaddle, please feel free to register via the website linked in the bio, or drop me a message with any questions. I hope to see you there!
