Health and Safety guidelines, rules and regulations

The safety and enjoyment of your trip depend on both river and weather on your chosen trip day. We do not allow any trips to proceed when severe conditions are occurring or expected. Furthermore, heavy rainfall over the days leading up to your trip date affects the river levels, especially rainfall over the Welsh mountains some two days before departure. We will offer you an alternative date if we are unable to run your trip due to circumstances beyond our control.

If you have any questions about your mega-SUP hire, equipment or the River Severn please do not hesitate to ask.

Furthermore, if your party have any health issues, please discuss this with us first and make us aware. As a consequence of certain health issues we may discourage you from taking part. Anyone with a history of epilepsy should also avoid participating in this activity.

Maximum weight per Mega SUP is 99 stone. Minimum age to participate in this activity is 10 years old. The minimum hire age is 18 years old and an adult must accompany anyone under the age of 18.

It is important to note that participants must have the ability to swim a minimum of 25 metres.  An adult who can swim must accompany anyone who cannot swim this distance.

You cannot fish unless you have the appropriate permit to fish on the stretch of the river your journey takes you on and a National rod license.

Please ensure you arrive no later than the time stated in the email that is sent to you.  Due to other customers requiring travel in our free shuttle, if you arrive late we will have to leave without you with no refund or reschedule given.

You must wear your buoyancy aids and helmets at all times whilst you are paddling the Mega SUP. When you leave the river take all your belongings, buoyancy aids, helmets and paddles as these are your responsibility and we will charge you in full if lost or stolen.

Most importantly, please note that you should not consume alcohol prior to your trip. We will not allow you to hire or participate in the event if you are found under the influence of alcohol or any other substances and we will not provide a refund in the event of cancellation.  Furthermore, you cannot take alcohol on the river and we have the right to confiscate it until you return. If you refuse to relinquish alcohol we will cancel the trip with no refund given.

Participants are responsible for ensuring they have the correct clothing and are fit enough to complete any trip comfortably. The route will take 3-3½ hours to paddle even in low summer river levels but we allow up to 4 hours.  With this in mind, if you exceed the 4 hour time we reserve the right to make a surcharge of £25 per extra hour, per boat, overrunning the time limit. In the unlikely event that you are not able to return to the end of the trip and you need a staff member to retrieve you and your boat(s) (dependent on where you are located on the river) there will be a £100 retrieval charge.

There is no safety cover on the river however you can contact us at all times. For the most part, mobile phone coverage on the river is minimal for a lot of the major networks. However we can also be contacted on WhatsApp on 07497 086936.

What to wear and spare equipment: Loose clothing, i.e. t-shirts, shorts, leggings and trainers (NOT wellington boots, flip flops or jeans as they can become heavy and uncomfortable in wet weather).  Due to the sun reflecting off the water this can increase your chance of heat stroke and sunburn so please wear sunscreen. Furthermore the weather conditions can also change very quickly on your journey so please bring a raincoat. In addition, we also recommend you bring a change of clothes and towel for the end of your trip.

Do bring: A drink, chocolate bar, snack/picnic and sun tan lotion. Especially important is a waterproof mobile phone.

Do not bring: Expensive jewellery, watches, cameras/video cameras if not waterproof as we cannot be held responsible for any loss or damage to any of your effects.

Please do not leave rubbish on the river banks or drop it in the river. Bring it back with you and we will dispose of it.

Before making a booking, please review our full terms and conditions.
