Dinghy Trails

Inspiring and connecting dinghy cruisers across the UK – led by volunteers and proudly supported by the Royal Yachting Association (RYA).

Your new adventure starts here!

Our trails are designed to show you how to get the most out of your dinghy and enjoy a day on the water exploring some of the UK’s glorious countryside. We’ve done a lot of research for you – whether it’s information about the local area, wildlife, places of interest, launch location, parking, fees, tides – we hope this will give you a head start on planning your next adventure!

For the less experienced, along with the easier trails, we have a range of courses that will upskill your knowledge and help you gain confidence. The more experienced dinghy cruiser can also challenge themselves with some of our longer trails.

Simply select your preferred country and region from the menu to begin exploring our trails!
