Who are we?

Our collective origin story is the annual WomDomNom kayaking trip from Wellington to Narromine.

After five years of paddling down the same section of the same river, we aspired to paddle further, faster and more far flung rivers.

Drawing PaddleNSW members from Coffs Harbour, Sydney, Blue Mountains, Newcastle, Wollongong, Jervis Bay and Dubbo, we come together for training paddles and expeditions down some of Australia's iconic rivers.

At last count, we have successfully organised over 250 kayaking trips covering 4700 kms involving 1650 paddlers without significant loss of life.

All expeditionary river kayakers are PaddleNSW members
