We can offer kayak or canoe trips on the idyllic Bogstadvannet, a large freshwater lake located between Oslo and Bærum. This is a good starting point for paddling trips for families with children and for those who want a paddling trip on calm water.
The start of the trip is at the beach, where it’s easy to get into the boats. We paddle past Bogstad Manor, a beautiful estate from the 1600s and presents a splendid sight from the water.
Furthermore, we paddle to the mouth of the Sørkedalselven river, which winds its way into the valley. Here, we can paddle upstream on a winding, calm river with exciting nature and wildlife on both sides.
The trip continues to the northeastern corner of the lake and disembarks at Bjørnsgard, which can be considered a small Norwegian folk museum with several small log houses and farm buildings, the oldest building are up to 800 years old and are among the oldest well-preserved in the world. Here we take a short break with coffee and a light snack before paddling back to the beach.
