The Tyne Tour is one of the best kayak/canoe events in the UK. Since its origins as the Mike Jones Rally the Tyne tour has become a firm favourite of mine. Most paddlers will stick to the area around Hexham and Tyne Green but there are several other stretches of water in the local area that are worth looking at. This post is not designed to be a definitive guide in any way but is intend to offer a few ideas so you can maximise your paddle time and choice if attending the tour. So here we have it The Tyne Tour – A Brief Water Guide.
Camping, food and retailers are all based at Tyne Green right on the river bank in Hexham. Hexham is large market town so there are plenty of shops, pubs and takeaways if required.
The main river for the tour is the North Tyne. Local canoe/kayak clubs provide safety cover on the largest whitewater section of the North Tyne at Rescue Rock. Each Saturday of the Tyne Tour you will find me sat on Rescue Rock taking thousands of still images.
With little water last weekend Unsponsored headed over to the local hills and the Ard Moors Enduro.
Here are just a few of the images taken.
The European Open 2018 including the British Championships took place this weekend at Holmepierrepont, Nottingham, UK.

The European returns to Holme Pierrepont, Nottingham for 2018. The event takes place from the 1st to 2nd of September 2018.
Entry for the event opens tomorrow. Unsponsored will be there reporting on the action.
