As we enter the cold, damp, dark part of the year I thought I would share some colourful photos from several coracling trips in the lakes during Autumn. Hopefully these will help provide some brightness until spring arrives and more comfortable paddling can recommence.

We all thought the coracle (curach) had died out as a traditional working boat in Scotland in the 18th Century with the cessation of timber floating on the River Spey.
Anyone who has been for a paddle on many of the country’s rivers in the past few years will have noticed much litter floating around, or caught in overhanging branches.
In May 2025 when I drove down to Cilgerran on the Teifi for a short break, I made a pilgrimage to Cenarth, a place I had not been since I was 10.
