Combine nature and relaxation; At our base at the Sjølyst Marina you will receive the equipment best suited to you and we will take you through safety instructions before we head out on the water of the Oslofjord.
Starting to paddle around the Killingen Island, where you will see a big Gorilla form one of our famous sculptor. We paddle across the fjord towards the mouth of Lysaker river. Here we are crossing under the bridges of the motorway and follow the river upstream- it’s calm and narrow, with beautiful nature along the way.
After about 1 km we reach Granfos Waterfall – a hidden gem with a small lagoon. For those of you who want to try yourself in the tides – it’s a lot of fun! Afterwards we return on the river to a little marina, where we park our kayaks on the beach. Sauna session and a refreshing fjord dip, before we are heading back to the base.
