text: Hi\n\nDepends where u are.  I'm in Lancashire and usu. paddle rivers, but lake Coniston in the Lake District is nice, and there's a P&D car park just after Water Yeat at the South West corner with has a great place to get onto the lake.\n\nI think you can paddle on Hollingworth Lake, near Rochdale.\n\nLook on the British Canoe Union page http://www.bcu.org.uk/  or ask Brookbank Canoes for advice http://www.brookbankcanoes.co.uk/\n\nRichard
