CANOEING

Hello Canoe Enthusiasts!

“There is nothing so aesthetically pleasing and yet so functional and versatile as the canoe.”

Bill Mason

Isn’t that the truth? The canoe truly stands out as the most versatile boat ever designed! It can effortlessly navigate everything from thrilling whitewater rivers to expansive, serene lakes.

 Whether you prefer paddling, poling, or sailing, and even if you need to carry it on your shoulders when the going gets tough, the canoe is ready for any adventure. That’s why we are so passionate about coaching canoeing and sharing our love for paddling skills, knowledge, and experiences with all of you!

 And if you’re just dipping your toes into open canoeing for the first time, seeking personalized coaching to elevate your skills, or eager to embark on an expedition through the breathtaking Nordic wilderness, we’ve got you covered!

“There is magic in the feel of a paddle and the movement of a canoe, a magic compounded of distance, adventure, solitude, and peace. The way of a canoe is the way of the wilderness and of a freedom almost forgotten.”
Sigurd F. Olson

Each year, we conduct multi-day expeditions that combine bushcraft and open canoe skills. Bushcraft and canoeing go hand in hand as we journey along one of the most historically significant rivers in Lapland. Once central to the Lapland Gold Rush! These six-day trips are based on the stunning Ivalojoki river in Northern Lapland. Get in touch to find out more.

We paddle fully outfitted expedition canoes to enhance safety, performance and flexibility.

We offer a fantastic selection of high-quality boats from Esquif, Nova Craft, Hou, and Mad River. Plus, we provide top-notch paddles, PFDs, and helmets to ensure your adventure is safe and enjoyable.

We’re so excited to meet you on the water. See you soon, and let’s make some incredible memories together!
