Activity description

This famous rafting tour has popularised rafting in Norway. The famous 16 km route down the middle part of the Sjoa is perfect for everyone, experienced or not!

The Sjoa river starts at lake Gjende in Gjendesheim in the Jotunheimen mountains in Norway's Jotunheim National Park. It flows east into the river Gudbrandsdalslågen over the traditional Heidal district in Gudbrandsdal.

The class of this river is dependent on the water level, normally between grades 2-4 and becomes more technical when the river is higher.

Your guides are highly experienced who prioritise your safety and ensure that your trip is filled with fun and excitement. 

You will raft through well known rapids like Microsurf, Golfstrømmen, Høystakkene, Sjokoladejuvet, ByeByeBaby and Faukstad-droppet. Halfway through you will take a break and a bite to eat in front of the camp fire that is set up before completing the last part of your Sjoa rafting experience.

Once back at the base you can take a hot shower and have a coffee/tea and juice while you look through all of the awesome photos that were taken on the trip.
