Where you sleep
Your own camp on the riverbank
After a night in a typical Swedish cabin you paddle quietly down the river through the forest. Moose and beavers live along the rivers and lakes here. The river has no rapids, so the trip suits first-time paddlers and families alike.
You get a route description that tells you what to look out for. Find a good spot, set up camp, gather wood and try your luck fishing. Tired and happy, you fall asleep under the stars. It's about 20 km of paddling; for keen paddlers there are longer trips of 50 km or more.
