Come and experience this summer’s adventures in the rapids with us
If you want to paddle the rapids in a safe and secure way with friends or family, we offer day trips in Packraft just a stone’s throw from our shop in Dala-Floda.
Together with our guides, we will take you down the beautiful Lissfors rapids. Here you will have an adventure you will not soon forget.
The only prerequisite is that you can swim, nothing more is required. We provide you with all the necessary equipment.
In our courses, we only use high-quality Packrafts from Kokopelli.

Program
We meet at Kajaktiv and the instructor gives a briefing and hands out all necessary equipment.
After an introduction about equipment and packing, we go through safety for the tour.
Before we jump in the water, we go through basic paddling techniques.
Once on the water, we learn how to get up in our packraft from the water and how to swim safely in a rapid.
Then the fun begins, and as a team we paddle down Lissfors.

About our instructors
Our instructors all have long experience and keep up to date with the latest in education, first aid, and safety. But perhaps the most important thing is their enthusiasm for whitewater paddling and the opportunity to introduce others to this world. Some of our instructors started their paddling careers here with us many years ago. Maybe the same will happen for you.
Find us at Kajaktiv
Kajaktiv is located in the heart of Dalarna, about three hours by car from Stockholm and five hours from Gothenburg. For those coming from further away, we can offer accommodation options in our course lodging. You can also pitch a tent near our facility if you prefer.
Train and bus connections
You can take the train to Borlänge or Djurås from most major cities in Sweden. From there, you can take a bus to Dala-Floda. You can also contact us for possible options to be picked up in Djurås.
More than just paddling
We highly recommend that you bring your mountain bike, running shoes, or hiking boots. Here you will find great trails for both cycling, running, and hiking, and our staff are happy to share their favorites. The village is also worth exploring if you have some extra time, and right next to it you have Lake Flosjön inviting you to take a dip. You can rent a kayak for the day if you want to explore the lake with its beautiful beaches and swimming opportunities.
