Canoe Trips at Wilderness Edge! Canoeing by Scandiatrail in Värmland, Sweden
Where Swedish Värmland and Dalsland border Norway, you will find a wild and romantic area with countless lakes. This area is commonly referred to as "Sweden in miniature". Deep forests, mountains and exquisite waterways, similar of northern Sweden, dominate the area, but also encompasses many aspects that may remind some of southern Sweden. The area is 10.000 km² dominated by a tremendous lake and river system, deep ravines and fairy tale forest. The water is so pure, you can drink it straight from the lake, and the abundance of beautiful places to camp, makes this a nature lovers dream.
Lakes and rivers are for the most part connected, but sometimes you may encounter a lock. Going through a lock with a canoe, is both exciting and easy. Slightly more challenging are longer round-trips where portages are necessary. A small canoe cart is used for this purpose, where the canoe is tied down, so it can be easily transported to the next launch.
All of our tours are in the "easy to paddle" category, only weather changes, can make the difficulty to medium. Canoeing is a sport anyone can enjoy who likes water, wants to experience nature up close and isn’t afraid of using muscle power. On our tours everyone is welcome: singles, couples, families or lager groups. We have over 30 years experience that we happily share with you, in addition to first rate equipment. However, in the end it is up to the individual guest how great the vacation can be. Our group tours are lead by experienced guides that know the waterways and how to set up camp in the wilderness. Our guides are there to lend a helping hand and give advice. Our canoe resort is located on the shore of lake Stora Le. This is the start and ending point of all of our tours. The resort is far from civilization, yet easy to reach by car or bus.
