Guided whitewater kayak and packraft tours in Sjoa, Norway

Mad Goats run guided kayak and packraft tours on the Lagen River, which is graded from 1-2. This means it is a beginner friendly whitewater paddling tour. We recommend you have attended the 6hr våttkort introkurs with us before joining this tour, but if not that is ok and we will make sure to put you in a packraft, which is much more stable than a river kayak. Hope you are fired up for an incredibly beautiful and exciting adventure on one of Norways most pristine rivers!

Camping spots (telte / campingplasser) and simple cabins for overnight (overnatting) accommodation while on your kayak course or tour in Sjoa. Enjoy the beautiful forest views and the sound of birds singing beside the Sjoa river. We also have a sauna and hot tub that you are welcome to use when staying with us in Sjoa, Heidal.
