Guided rafting trip for the entire family and a good oppurtunity to do something fun together. In between family friendly rapids you will get the chance to swim in the river, jump off cliffs, play games and enjoy the beautiful scenery.
Once you are all dressed in a wetsuit, life jacket and helmet, our bus will take you to the river. There you will get instructions and training, before our experienced guides lead you safely down the river in a controlled and fun manner. This is a great introduction to an exciting activity.

Afterwards we all meet up at the BBQ house, where our photographer shows pictures from the trip while we serve coffee / tea, juice and cake.

This is our flagship excursion on the section of river that put Norway on the international rafting map. The Sjoa is known for being one of the best whitewater rafting rivers in Europe and this is the trip that made it famous.

This excursion takes you on clean, crystal-clear blue water, through stunning deep gorges and big waves, for one of the most enjoyable and memorable rafting trips available anywhere in the world. The classic daytrip is suitable for everyone, from adrenaline junkies who want to experience the most challenging lines, to those who just want to relax and enjoy the scenery – and everything in between. Different water levels change the experience of the trip. Higher water brings big waves and lower levels require more technical rafting. Our experienced guides are adept at ensuring your safety and a lot of fun and excitement as they expertly navigate the rapids.

At the halfway mark, we stop on the riverbank to enjoy a lunch of warm food, salad and bread. There we also light a campfire and make coffee before taking on the last part of Sjoa. When the water level is appropriately low, we finish the excursion with the famous “Washing Machine” rapid. Back at basecamp, guests enjoy a hot shower and change of clothes before tea, coffee and juice is served in the BBQ house. Then we gather around a big screen while our photographer shares the action photos taken on the excursion so you can reflect on the adventure from a different perspective.

This is the shorter version of the day trip on the middle part of Sjoa, that is just as wet, wild and beautiful as our flagship daytrip. On this excursion, you get to experience the most popular rapids, with the line dependent on the levels on the day – surfing on higher water and more technical rafting in lower water. When the water is at the appropriate level, we end the excursion at the “Washing Machine” rapid. Our guides are selected for their skill and experience and will lead you through rapids in a safe yet exciting way. Once back at basecamp, you can enjoy a warm shower, followed by coffee, tea and juice at the BBQ house. Then, our photographer will share the great action footage shot on your excursion, and you will have the opportunity to buy any of the photos you would like to keep. On request, you can also book dinner after the trip.
