Grade 2 Guided Whitewater Kayak or Packraft Tour - Sjoa, Norway

This tour is suitable for beginner-level kayakers but you must have some previous experience. If you want to learn how to kayak we recommend you join our 5hr beginner course. 

If you do not have any kayaking experience, you can still join but must be in a packraft or an inflatable kayak. You must be able to swim and have a reasonable level of fitness. We ask that children is under 13-years go in a packraft or inflatable kayak together with their parent or caregiver. We are open for them to paddle by themselves under certain conditions: strong swimmers and past paddling experience.

• Duration: 2.5 - 3 hours (depending on numbers and flow). This includes a briefing, getting changed into and out of gear, driving to the river and back, and the tour itself.

• Maximum 10 people on a tour. Our groups are kept small so you will have the best possible experience.

• What's included: Whitewater kayak or packraft, paddle and all equipment, including wetsuit, helmet, life vest, spray skirt, shoes, and spray jacket.

• At our paddling base in Nedre Heidal, we have camping/hammock/campervan overnight options, sauna and hot tub, toilet/kitchen facilities, and access to electricity.  If you want to sleep in a soft bed and not in a tent/hammock, then we recommend staying at either GoRafting or the Heidal Gjestgiveri, which are both a short walk from our base. 

• You will receive a 15% discount code for our river sauna and accommodation in your booking confirmation. If you have already booked sauna or accommodation you will not get this discount refunded.
