Join me, Gwen Wilkinson, as I embark on a series of fabulous adventures exploring Ireland’s waterways. Paddling my trusty canoe Minnow I’ll venture out on lakes, navigate sheltered bays and follow the winding course of rivers and canals. Our waterways are corridors of immense wildlife diversity, brimming with life above and below the surface. The low profile and silent passage of the canoe will allow for close encounters with a cast of fascinating creatures such as otter, pike and dragonflies. We’ll keep a sharp eye out for egret, moorhen and grebe, and with a little bit of luck catch sight of a kingfisher darting across our bow. The essence of slow adventure, this paddle-powered podcast will transport you to enchanted realms and watery worlds of wonder.
