About
Experience the thrill of a multi-day kayaking expedition through the stunning Stockholm Archipelago. Begin your adventure with a short 45-60 minute drive from the city centre to the heart of the archipelago.
As you prepare for the journey ahead, you'll pack your camping gear, food, and water for the next few days. Before setting off, we will provide essential safety instructions and paddling techniques to ensure a safe and exciting trip. The starting point and route will be adjusted based on weather conditions and group constellation, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable experience for all.
Day1 The first part of the trip is around 2 hours of paddling, and you'll stop for lunch on one of the small beautiful islands.
After lunch, enjoy another 2 hours of paddling with lots of picture-perfect spots along the way. The group will take a break for some snacks before the final paddle of the day.
You'll search for the perfect camping spot and set up your tent for the night. The first day ends next to an campfire and with breathtaking views over the ocean.
Day 2 Another exciting day! Wake up to stunning views over the ocean while enjoying your breakfast. Pack up your equipment and get back into the kayak for several miles on the water, further out to the edge of the archipelago. This is a completely remote and uninhabited area, perfect for a small hike and lunch on one of the small islands.
After lunch, you'll slowly turn around and find another great camping spot in the wilderness of the archipelago. Once you find the perfect spot, relax and enjoy some time to yourself before dinner preparation starts.
One more day to go, you will most likely sleep very well to recover some energy for the last upcoming part.
Day 3: Your day will begin with some time to embrace the natural scenery as you enjoy your coffee/tea next to the ocean. After breakfast, it's time to get your equipment back into the kayak and to start the last part of the trip.
On the way back to the kayak station, the route goes along an alternative path which features different islands and new scenery to discover. Before heading back to town you will reminiscing over your 3 days out in nature.
