Kayak Norway – from the classics to expeditions by JK Team | Sep 16, 2020 | Austria, Creeking, Featured Post, Internationalisation, JAdventures Main Banner, Nirvana, Whitewater, Whitewater Feature, WW Disciplines | 2 comments Kayaking Norway – from the classics to expeditions I have almost spent two weeks in Norway this summer. It is such an epic place for whitewater kayaking. The amount of snow they had was insane so we had super high flows almost all the time. We started our trip pretty far south in Dagali and then continued to one of the most famous kayaking destinations – Voss. Voss was incredible! We stayed there for three weeks and kayaked almost every day. From flatwater up to class V, Voss has it all. Definitely one of my favourite kayaking places I have ever been to. After that, we went up north to paddle some remote rivers, also doing some multidays. Our highlight was the Glomoga, a super sceneric multiday where you paddle between two massive glaciers. You start paddling on a lake for two hours and then hike in from behind and paddle the Glomoga from the source on. It was a lot of hiking but so worth it! I have never seen such a beautiful place before, it was insane. We even paddled under some ice bridges! On the way back we paddled some more classics before heading south to Austria.

Is this ever a factor when you are nearby them such as the red kayak in the first pic? Reply Gabriel Gunning on October 21, 2020 at 4:56 am i’m curious to know about the calving icebergs as well? they must give a telltale before giving birth so to speak.
