a Paddl ddlee on Padarn Now that we've all been allowed out the house, and can partake of a bit of wandering, I looked lovingly over at Winona, our We-No-Nah Aurora open canoe, and began planning some adventures. I pondered for a moment or two on the last time Muddy Madam and I last took her out for a paddle, and to my horror I reckoned it was around 3 years ago! Here's the tale.. It began with a quick phone call to the ever accommodating PR team at Suzuki. I had a Vitara S booked in, and I asked if they could fit a roof bar system as I wanted to take Winona out for one last paddle before school began.
Llyn Padarn in North Wales was chosen as it had been a recommendation on the ‘CamperVan Overnight Camping’ FaceBook page. I had asked for a lake or river where I could park up, launch Winona and have a BBQ on the shore without having to walk miles and miles, and, amongst others, Llyn Padarn was suggested. Located just off the A4086, and around 7 miles (15 minutes) away from Caernarfon, Llyn Padarn is around 2 miles long, and at its deepest point is 94 feet deep. It’s a stunning area, and here comes a bit of trivia, it’s one of the largest natural lakes in Wales, so there you go.
