Closed for the season – see you again next summer

Canoeing, SUP and rowing are now closed for the season. Here you can read more about our activities on the Västerdalälven river and start planning next summer’s adventures at Kläppen.

Gliding along the calm river gives a wonderful sense of freedom. There's plenty of space for both leisurely paddling and small breaks along the way. You can choose to paddle upstream or about two kilometres south to a small sandbank, which is a perfect spot for a swim or a rest in the sun.
