What to expect
You'll launch from the shore in a lightweight single-seater kayak—stable and easy to manoeuvre even for beginners. The guide paddles alongside, pointing out the geology and history woven into the surrounding landscape and the striking peaks that dominate the lake's centre. The water is remarkably clear and calm, making for straightforward paddling. The full circuit takes roughly two hours at a leisurely pace, giving you time to absorb the scenery without rushing. You'll finish with a real sense of having covered ground under your own power rather than simply watched from a boat.
