The rhythm is deliberately unhurried: arrive at Corralea Activity Centre, change into a wetsuit and buoyancy aid, and take briefing and route discussion from staff before launching into sheltered water. After roughly two hours on Lough Macnean you return to base to swap paddles for hot-tub tranquility — 90 minutes of exclusive use in a forest setting that brings the trip full circle.
