Scudamore's Mill Lane Punting Station
"Punting may be touristy... But it is probably still the best way
to see all of the colleges and their history up close. By
punting up the backs you will pass through many colleges
Punting itself is not difficult. You stand at the back and push
yourself along with the pole.
The secret is that once you've pushed yourself along, you
need to leave the pole in the water behind you to act as your
rudder. Don't try to steer by pushing or with the emergency
paddle….. Punt like a pro and steer with the pole!
