Kayaking & Rafting in Bergen and the region

Bergen is a great starting point for canoeing and rafting.

In the summer you can rent a canoe on Fløyen (free of charge), join a guided kayak trip in beautiful Øygarden just outside the city center, or take a day trip to Voss for rafting in wild rivers! Rafting is available throughout the summer and you can buy a package deal which includes the train ticket, shuttle bus and rafting.

At Ado Arena in Bergen city center you can rent a kayak and SUP board on an hourly basis.

If you’d like to do something good for the environment while enjoying a kayak trip, you can rent a kayak for free by collecting any litter you find along the way. In Bergen, the Green Kayak is available at the Norwegian Fisheries Museum and at AdO arena.

You can also combine a day trip from Bergen with kayaking in Gudvangen. Check out the tour called Standard Extra Fjord Tour from Bergen, organized by Norway Active.

If you want to organize kayaking for a group in Bergen, you can contact Bergen Base Camp.

Still unsure if kayaking is for you? This is what you need to know about kayaking in the Norwegian fjords.
