Welcome to Unicorn Paddle

Stand Up Paddle (SUP) lessons and SUP nature expeditions all over Scotland and SUP hire from our Loch Lomond base.

We love to take you to the best places in our 8 seater van.
Our home base is near Stirling in the River Forth, Loch Lomond and the Trossachs area.

  • Structured, quality, safe lessons and tours
  • Rivers, lochs, coastal waters, sea lochs, beaches and canals
  • ½, ¾, full day and longer weekend trips

We pick up from Stirling University, Alloa railway station and places along the way (Stirling, Bridge of Allan, Dunblane station and others depending where you are coming from/where we are headed to), incl. Balloch railway station (for those coming from Glasgow on Loch Lomond trips) or at Leven bus station (for those joining us on our Fife beaches trip).

Our wide range of full body all seasons multi-layered wetsuit equipment (including wet socks, -boots, -gloves, – hoods and wet shirt and leggings underlayers) is included – you will never be cold.

All of our trips are subject to calm wind conditions, if conditions are unsafe, we will not paddle. Wind speed is everything and will make the difference between easy/fun/enjoyable and hard going/difficult to dangerous.

Our base is in Alloa – 10 minutes from Stirling & the University (where our office was for 27 years), 45 minutes from Edinburgh & Glasgow
