Welcome to the website of the Devizes to Westminster International Canoe Marathon (DW) -
The longest non-stop canoe marathon in the world.

2008 is the 60th Anniversary Event - 21st - 24th March 2008

Senior Doubles crews race 125 miles from Devizes to London without stopping. Starting on Easter Saturday, they paddle straight through the night and finish on Easter Sunday.

Junior Crews and Senior Singles do the same course but spread over 4 days. As part of the race, junior crews camp each night and prepare their own food.

DW attacts hundreds of paddlers each year. Open to young and old, the race welcomes elite paddler and relative novice alike. It's an awesome physical and mental challenge - and has been for over 60 years

Why not celebrate your Easter by entering DW?

The next race is on 21st - 24th March 2008
