Overview
Paddle down the easy Otra River, down a beautiful landscape with Norwegian nature on both sides. The journey is relaxing and suitable for paddlers of all levels.
The tour starts when we pick you and drive you by car for 10 minutes to the starting point of the river.
At the starting point we will help you get in the kayak safely and guide you down the river. You will also get help from the river's current that pushes you calmly down the river.
The Otra River has very clean water. When you dip your paddles and move the kayak, the water feels fresh.
The area around the river is beautiful. You paddle through forests with tall trees. You will hear birds singing.
As you get close to Kristiansand, the river gets wider. The city has both nature and buildings, and the river takes you right to the center. It’s a great place to end your trip and explore.
The tour ends at the address "Kjoita 10", a 10 minute walk from the city centre!
Paddling the Otra is a trip you will remember. Welcome!
