Destination of the Month

Hurley weir
Hurley Weir is a weir on the River Thames at Hurley in the English county of Berkshire, not far from Marlow, Buckinghamshire and just downstream from Henley-on-Thames.

Hurley is the centre of a very active freestyle kayaking scene in the South-east of England, because of the favourable size and shape of the wave at Hurley Weir. A standing wave is generated by the gates (those which are opened) in the middle of on the weir. This attracts kayakers from a considerable distance. Hurley also hosts an annual rodeo competition, the Hurley Classic. (more...)
