Family rafting
Join this trip with your family for an unforgettable experience with your loved ones! FUN - SAFE - MEMORABLE
Description
Money can’t buy happiness, but an experience can! Designed for kids from age 6, our family rafting trip runs, depending on water levels, on an easy section of river either on the Austervefsna or Svenningelva. Easy doesn’t mean less fun though. You still get wet, either from crashing waves or if you jump into the water to go for a swim in a flowing river!
Upon arrival at the base, you will be greeted by your trip leader. She or he will give you all necessary information before we get changed into the wetsuits. A 15 minute drive will then bring us to the starting point. We unload the rafts and give you a good safety briefing before we start paddling. We spend about 1 to 1.5 hours on the river. There are plenty of different rapids with fun waves. Some places are deep enough to go for a swim or even jump from the boat or a cliff beside the river! This is depending on water levels though and can’t be promised. Overall we travel through breathtaking scenery which in this sense can only be experienced from the river. A truly unique experience!
Difficulty & Safety
The rivers we raft have moving current and nice easy rapids. They are perfect for a family river experience. There will be a safety briefing and a paddle technique briefing before the start of the trip. Your guides are absolute professionals with vast experience on the river.
Photos
We will put on a photographer for the trip, and you can buy different packages afterwards, either the 5 best photos, 15 best photos or the full album.
