About the experience
A compact rafting experience that offers a taste of rafting on the Valldøla River
Valldøla is one of Norway’s great rivers for rafting, offering exciting rapids combined with beautiful scenery throughout the valley. Express Rafting is a shorter, action-packed trip designed for guests who want an exciting rafting adventure in less time. The trip includes several fun grade 3 rapids, balanced with calmer sections where you can enjoy the spectacular surroundings.
Meet at our office
The trip start at our office, where our welcoming guides will inform you about today’s trip and provide each guest with important rafting equipment: Wetsuits, rafting shoes, helmets, and life jackets. From our office, we will provide transfer to the where the rafting begins. Here the trip leader will give a thorough safety briefing, before splitting the group into different boats with their own guide and the adventure begins!
Rafting the river
After some easy training in a safe area the trip starts with exciting rapids and waves! The lower section goes fast, as the river is narrower and steeper, providing us the best rapids. There are only a few slower parts where we get to catch our breaths, before it`s full on again. A real challenge for all rafters and those who only have just a couple of hours available.
