Canoe day trip on Hardangervidda
Guided Day Trip

Canoe Adventure in the Wilderness

Paddle calm waters, watch for wildlife, and find peace in the wild beauty of Hardangervidda.

What to expect

A peaceful day on calm waters

Glide silently across clear mountain lakes and slow rivers surrounded by the vast landscapes of Hardangervidda. This guided canoe trip is perfect for families, beginners, and anyone who wants to unwind in nature at a relaxed and comfortable pace.

Learn the basics of paddling, explore quiet coves, and keep an eye out for wildlife such as beavers and birds of prey. We take regular breaks for swimming, stretching, and simply enjoying the stillness of nature. A fresh picnic lunch made with local ingredients is included — please let us know about any dietary requirements when booking.
