Come and experience this summer’s adventure 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 store in Dala-Floda, Dalarna.
Together with our guides, we will take you down the beautiful rapids of Lissfors. 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 Kokapelli.

About our instructors
Our instructors all have extensive experience and stay up to date with the latest in education, first aid, and safety. But perhaps most importantly 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. Perhaps it will be the same 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 overnight accommodation in our course lodging. You can also set up a tent next to 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 cycling, running, and hiking, and our staff are happy to share their favorites. The village is also worth exploring if you have time, and right next to it you have Lake Flosjön inviting you for a swim. You can rent a kayak for the day if you want to explore the lake with its beautiful beaches and swimming opportunities.
