River Wye 85-mile Kayak Trip, Glasbury-on-Wye to Redbrook fundraiser for MacMillan Hereford
We were blessed with beautiful weather over the first two days - suncream was the day’s essential travelling companion and we were left constantly marvelling at the glorious course the river takes you on. We'd never kayaked on clearer waters than the stretch between Glasbury & Hereford. The local birdlife know a thing or two about happy fishing grounds and while we get our fair share of herons, egrets, cormorants, kingfishers and the like on the Avon, we'd never seen such an abundance of wildlife on the Wye during our first day.
