4 Day Kayak Trip in Norway: Hike, Kayak, and Camp on the Norwegian Fjords
Experience the majestic Norwegian fjords from a kayak and, climb to the top of the iconic Pulpit Rock, on our 4 day kayak trip in Norway: “Hike, Kayak and camp on the Norwegian Fjords”!
“Kayaking was easy and all the Kayaking equipment and clothing provided was of good quality.
Our lovely Norwegian guide was brilliant and is totally in touch with the environment which ensured we had a truly natural experience.
Getting to Pulpit Rock before the crowds and setting off early to catch the smooth calm waters.
Even accommodating our desire to fish from our kayaks for supper ( This was not an easy thing to do for a vegetarian and was much appreciated by us all) resulting in fish for dinner. Campfire dining with our small group of 8 was a great way to end our days.” – Julie, TripAdvisor

“I recently returned from a 6 day sea kayaking and hiking trip, which was incredibly well organised and equipped – from the activities including sea kayaking, hiking, fishing, foraging and night paddling – to the very comfy accommodation on the shores of Lysefjord. All activities were well organised and challenging, catering for all levels and with safety as the main priority. What made the trip exceptional were the amazing instructors – Sebastian, Morten, Frederic and Lukas – their expertise, patience, kindness and cooking skills were outstanding. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this company.” – Lorna, TripAdvisor

Kayaking Lysefjord is in our one of the best experiences you must experience in the area. We pass by beautiful granite gorges, and waterfalls.
“Kayaking the fjord with Nordic Paddling was the best part of our Norway trip. The location was easy to get to with their directions. They provide all the gear, but you should definitely bring a big water bottle, and maybe change of clothes (I stayed dry but my husband got soaked, it seems this was the case for other people too and I don’t know why). Dan was an awesome guide. He was calm and funny and made everyone in the tour group feel included. He gave really good instruction and even though we weren’t super experienced with kayaking (there was someone else on the tour who had never kayaked before too), it was pretty easy to get used to, especially since the kayaks were comfortable. The weather was thankfully amazing – sunny, beautiful, calm. Everyone was allowed to go at their own pace and Dan gave good information on some of the things we were passing and seeing. He was very easy to talk to and friendly. And of course, the views were stunning and so serene. If we were staying longer we probably would have come and kayaked again with Nordic Paddling. Worth every single penny spent!” – Victoria, TripAdvisor

“Unbeatable trip down the beautiful Lysefjord! Expertly led by Anna with a lot of care and attention to safety and great information about the history of the fjord and pointing out of local landmarks (including the incredible Pulpit Rock).
Some stamina needed on the way back with wind and waves against us but exhilarating because of this!
If you like stunning scenery and being in any kind of boat, then make sure this is on your ‘must-do’ list!” – Richard, TripAdvisor
