At the end of your adventure, you will finish paddling in the town of Geiranger where you’re free to find accommodation or make your own way to Alesund Airport. Your local host recommends that you take the fjord cruise between Geiranger and Alesund. This departs at 16:00 and arrives in Alesund around 19:00.

Equipment

Meet your guide and the rest of your team at the waterfront in Alesund, where you'll review equipment and safety and then hit the water for your first day of kayaking. Paddle along the Ellingsoyfjorden to Vemoya where you'll set up camp on the shore and enjoy a campfire and a hot meal before bed.

Alesund

 Alesund to Vemoya

Day 1

After breakfast and a hot coffee to start the day, paddle along Skodje Vika to Solnorcanals and then enter Storfjord - your first section of open water. Storfjord is the largest fjord in the area, with several smaller fjords branching off of it. In the afternoon, ascend a steep cliff and follow the winding path to Yste Skotet, a historic farm that has been resurrected as a museum where you'll spend another night beneath countless stars.

Day 2

Explore the farm some more and then hike back to the fjord and cross it to Storoya where you'll make camp at an old trading post. Take a natural waterfall bath and relax with some fishing before dinner.

Storoya

Day 3

Break camp ready for a long day on the water and paddle along Storfjord beneath the imposing mountains. Stop for lunch at a small town where you'll have the chance to do some shopping and then paddle along Sunnylvsfjord. Moor up at Aknes, a steep cliff that's closely watched for landslides and climb up the hillside to the historic farm above. If the season is right you can even spend the evening picking fresh cherries!

Day 4

Somehow the scenery gets even better today! Paddle out of Sunnylvsfjord and enter the UNESCO-listed Geirangerfjord, surrounded by steep, green walls and a surfeit of waterfalls. Stop in Matvik for lunch and continue on to Skagefla where you’ll hike up to your campground and some of the best views of the trip before relaxing around the campfire and enjoying a last night in the fjords.

Skagefla

Day 5

Linger over a last wilderness breakfast gazing over Geirangerfjord. From your lofty perch, you'll see three waterfalls - Bride’s Veil, Seven Sisters and Suitor. Hike back to the narrow shore and finish your kayaking adventure with a short paddle to the charming seaside town of Geiranger where you'll say goodbye to your guide and team and your adventure will come to an end.
