After beginning our trip with a mandatory safety introduction, we move on to outfitting of the kayak and some paddle instructions. We are then ready to set out in the fjord and explore its stunning nature.

While we follow the shoreline from Hellesylt, we will have good chances to spot some local wildlife, such as otters, porpoises and eagles. The guide will tell you stories about the mountain farms in the area as well as about the mountain Åkerneset, which is on its way to fall down in the fjord.
