Rafting in Norway
Rafting in northern Europe has distinct advantages – beautiful mountains, untouched fjords and pure water. Give yourself a break and explore the north.
This rafting expedition takes place in southern Norway, where we will conquer 3 rivers - Otta, Sjoa and Dagali. Afternoons will be spent camping in pure Norwegian nature, blueberry picking and swimming in rivers with potable water. On day 4, we will enter the Jotunheimen national park to hike up the Glittertind peak. The expedition ends in Oslo, where we'll explore the Fram museum and have a stroll through the city center.
This expedition will give you a distinct view on the eastern side of European culture.
The expedition will be led by our experienced rafting guides who take European rivers as their second home. Besides rafts the kayaks will be available on the trip for safety on the river and more fun in the rapids. Each boat will be fully equiped with whitewater gear including dry bags.
