Rafting in Sigdal

Rafting in Sigdal is unique – Participants receive training in paddling their own fleet without a guide. Before the start, everyone gets a thorough introduction to paddling technique and management of the raft as a team as well as river swimming and self-rescue. Our concept is 1 guide and 2 rafts. Max 10 pers per turn. For larger groups, there will be several guides on the trip.

NB: The river “Eggedøla” is a small watercourse and depends on precipitation or snowmelt to be able to provide a good and rich rafting experience. Stay tuned for the weather and our web pages for updated info. Call for information if you are in doubt. We give you our forecasts as best we can. The river stays fun for about 5 days after rainfall (depends on the amount of rainfall). In any case, we run family rafting every day throughout the summer.

We start on completely calm water and build up both self-confidence and competence. At the rapids, visual experience and route regulations are made. The participants are also involved in securing each other.

This type of rafting gives the participants a greater experience of cooperation and mastery together. Safety is always the first priority, everyone gets a good introduction to securing each other and how to move down the river in a safe and playful way.

The trip normally lasts about 1.5 hours. Return transport, dry suit, helmet and life jacket are included in the price. Our dry suits suit ages from 15 years and up. All participants meet with wool / synthetic long underwear, socks and sneakers (the shoes get wet). We take out the insole in the shoes so that we have better space for the dry suit.
