Program:
We meet at our paddle center, you choose between a canoe, kayak, or paddleboard before heading to Flosjön. After some basic instructions, you set out on your little adventure with a map showing the way. We recommend the best spot for a picnic and swimming depending on the weather.
If you choose, you can paddle back through the river with the opportunity to see wild animals like beavers and deer before entering the Västerdalälven river and finishing in the picturesque old village of Dala-Floda.
Alternatively, you can spend more time swimming and be picked up from the same place where you left.
