Exciting, fun and suitable for all levels! The water level determines whether you raft in the river Strandaelva or Raundalselva, both hold top international standard.

People from all over the world come to Voss to paddel the rivers. You will find varied rivers for all skill levels. Join a course with Voss Flow, Vått og Vilt, Kayak Voss or Outdoor Norway. If you are short on time, you can join a shorter session with Kayak Voss, Voss Flow and Vått og Vilt. If you want to experience a real adrenaline rush, we recommend you join a tandem kayaking trip. Here you will really feel the great power of the river.

SUP

From a SUP board you get a completely different perspective on the river. Depending on the skill level of the group you will take a trip down Vosso or Raundalselva. In Raundalselva there are some larger rapids - do not go on this trip without a qualified guide! There will be time for lots of swimming, photos and exploring the river. Book yourself a tour with Outdoor Norway.

Other activities on the river:

Canyoning:

Canyoning is an exciting activity that is offered when the water levels are too low to raft. You get to explore the canyons of the spectacular Raundalselva. Wearing a wetsuit, helmet and life jacket, you alternate between swimming, climbing and jumping along the river and canyon.

Packrafting:

Packrafts are first and foremost a lot of fun!!! They are wide, stable one-person inflatable crafts. They are durable, wide and very easy to manouvre and suitable on all bodies of water.

Waterfall rappelling:

Equipped with a climbing harness, wetsuit and helmet, you get to rappel down the 90-meter high and very spectacular Skjervsfossen waterfall, in two stages. Whether you love or hate heights, rappelling down the side of this powerful waterfall is guaranteed to get your heart pumping!

Lake life:

You can also rent equipment and explore the water at your own pace. The best place to start is lake Vangsvatnet, where there is calm, flat water and several operators offering rental equipment. Read more here.
