Double kayaking is a variation of the classic canoe designed for two people, who coordinate their movements to glide across the water together. Using a double-bladed paddle, participants sit in the kayak and work together to propel and steer the boat. A firm favourite among outdoor activities on the lakes of Trentino, double kayaking combines the enjoyment of navigation with the experience of cooperation, making it accessible and rewarding from the very first paddle strokes.

Double kayaking with Archè is both a sport and an exercise in connection and mutual trust. On the calm waters of Lake Caldonazzo, Archè offers kayaking experiences designed for people who want to explore the landscape from a unique vantage point, while ensuring stability and safety, even for complete beginners.
At Archè, we offer kayaking activities for groups of people with intellectual or sensory disabilities, reduced mobility, children and young people, and families with children.
Kayaking provides a full-body workout, developing upper-body strength, trunk mobility and cardiovascular endurance. During our sessions, we focus on shared rhythm and communication between pairs, transforming each outing into an exercise in motor coordination and interpersonal connection. It’s an activity that encourages confidence, relaxation and enjoyment while immersed in nature and exploring the shores of the lake.
For this reason, Archè recommends kayaking as an inclusion tool for people with intellectual or sensory disabilities, as well as neurodivergent participants. Thanks to the stability of kayaks and the presence of a professional or volunteer, kayaking is the perfect way to develop autonomy and social skills. Our methodological approach allows us to tailor our teaching methods to your specific needs, providing an experience that is safe, structured and deeply enriching.
We regularly collaborate with organisations to create tailored programmes. We can organise multiple sessions on the same day, allowing the whole group to try kayaking. Alternatively, we offer staged programmes with several outings throughout the summer, enabling participants to deepen their knowledge of the discipline over time.
