Holme Pierrepont

I spent the weekend watching the National white water rafting selection event this weekend down at Holme Pierrepont.
Teams competed against each other-and the elements- to qualify for the world championships later this year. Despite the unpleasant weather I had a great weekend.

For those who haven’t visited Holme Pierrepont, I urge you to put it on your summer to do list. There is plenty to see, and if you dare, do. Rafting, waterskiing, sailing, rowing and canoeing are often the order of the day, however if you merely want to go for a Sunday outing, there are footpaths alongside the white water rapids as well as paths along the banks of the Trent so you can see what goes on
There is plenty of wildlife for those who enjoy a spot of ornithology, and plenty of free parking.

So pop along for family friendly outing.
