As a section of the Camping and Caravanning Club, all our camping events are open to Camping and Caravanning Club members (including Canoe-camping Club members) only. Anyone participating must be a member of the Camping and Caravanning Club before attending a meet.

Please remember to bring your Club membership cards to all club events, since we are required to check and record memberships are current.  We also need to record BRITISH CANOEING numbers for those who have them. Paddlers need to be a member of the Canoe-camping Club and/or one of Britain's paddlesport National Governing Bodies*.   These are needed to ensure that we are covered by the Club's and British Canoeing's insurance.
Canoeing and kayaking are ‘assumed risk’ ‘water contact’ activities, however serious accidents are very rare.
Participants should be aware of and accept these risks, and be responsible for their own action and involvement.
All participants in club trips or meets do so at their own risk, and neither the Club nor its officers can accept any liability for loss or injury of any kind sustained whilst on a Club trip, meet or other activity.

Lammas fields to Fen Ditton

The Carpark will be available free of charge (unless the rules have changed this year) but there is a height barrier, which may mean you need to unload high roof racks before entering the parking area.

NOTE - No car ferry required - this trip is Out & Back with lunch at the Plough.

The river is suitable for all craft, and has very little flow. The trip is about 7km each way takes us through the Backs - around some of Cambridge's finest buildings and then on to the Plough at Fen Ditton for lunch. We return by the same route. There are two portages, the first via boat rollers and the second around Jesus Lock, and obviously two portages on the way back!
