$954.99pp
Our Family Chill Rafting Tour on the beautiful Lågen River in Sjoa is the perfect introduction to whitewater rafting and Nordic sightseeing — designed specifically with families, children, and first-timers in mind. What sets this tour apart is how we balance safety and fun to create a relaxing yet exciting raft trip. You’ll float through a stunning valley surrounded by picturesque Norwegian mountains, paddling mild and calm Grade 2 rapids yet still raw and powerful - enjoying quality time together in nature, breathing pristine air and taking in absolute breath taking views.
Led by certified and experienced guides, we make sure everyone feels confident and has a great time — no experience needed! Kids as young as 6 can join, and we provide all the gear and support so you can just show up and enjoy the ride. After the tour, we gather back at our rafting base in Heidal for a hot drink and smiles all around. If you are staying around you can jump straight in our river saunas or set up your tent, and settle in for a rustic, yet high quality Nordic outdoor experience.
Remember: this experience is more than just a rafting trip — it’s a shared adventure your family and friends will talk about for years to come.
