Passing through the landscape that has been carved out by glaciers, watching the waterfalls dive off the steep mountainsides and if we are lucky we might even spot some seals, otters porpoise and eagles on our way.  fff A experienced kayak and mountain guide will lead you on your way through the fjords and on the mountain, as well as through the history of the area.

– Transport back to Flåm
– Lunch & dinner day one, all meals day two and breakfast & lunch day three

INTINARY
In the morning of day one we have a introduction to the equipment and kayaks plus a safety and rescue course, everybody takes part, but it is optional to go for a swim. After lunch we start kayaking from Flåm towards the village Undredal, the goat capitol of western Norway. We have dinner and spend the night just outside Undredal.

After the hike we continue the journey into the Nærøyfjord, the evening will be spent in camp in the Nærøyfjord.   On day three we rise early from the camp, have breakfast and continue the journey leisurly towards Gudvangen in the spectacular Nærøyfjord  

in case you wonder, yes, the little white dot on the fjord is a massive cruise ship.  

After breakfast on day two we have a choice to take a hike to Beitelen, a viewpoint at 980 m above sea level or Stigen, a mountain farm. Both will give a chance to take in the spectacular view of how the Fjords have been carved out by the glaciers. The view will take your breath away!

Trips are scheduled to go most  weekends during July and August, but we arrange this trip with groups larger than 4 people on request.    

Booking is done by sending us an email at post@kajakk.com. Click here for prices
