OVERVIEW

On these trips, we take guests to some of Norway's wildest swim spots, from walks to stunning mountain pools, potholes and waterfalls to multi-day fjord & coast expeditions along the country’s 100,000 km shoreline, dotted with over 200,000 islands.

On multi-day trips, we camp in breathtaking locations. Wild camping is allowed throughout Norway through the Norwegian “Allemannsretten” (= the everyman’s right) which is an important part of the cultural heritage in Norway. We cook our supper by the campfire and when at sea we forage seaweed from Norway’s vast kelp forests.

A lifeguard leads the trips, and during swim expeditions, luggage is transported by sea kayaks or canoes.
