Åndalsnes has evolved into a national centre for outdoor activities and mountain sports in Norway. You've surely heard of Trollveggen, Romsdalshorn and Romsdalseggen? However, the unique opportunities for kayaking tours with Åndalsnes as a starting point are probably not as well-known.
In Åndalsnes, many people talk about climbing. We highly recommend paddling as well.
You are hereby invited to join our popular 3-hour kayaking tour on the idyllic Romsdalsfjord, nestled in the fjord's embrace. Right in front of your kayak lie well-known and beloved mountains such as Kirketaket, Loftsskarstind and Klauva. Here you will get a truly unique view of the famous Romsdal Alps.

The tour starts at Uteguiden Adventure Center in Åndalsnes. Here, the guide will run through the equipment you'll be using before providing a short safety briefing and outlining the tour route.
