Guided 3-Day Kayak and Wildcamp Tour in Stockholm Archipelago
Join our nature-loving kayak guides on a kayak and wild camping expedition through the myriad of small islands and islets just off the coast of Stockholm. We provide top-notch kayaking and camping equipment and a food menu for eco-lovers inspired by some Swedish outdoor food classics.
Our wilderness guides will take good care of you and lead you through this nature experience, taking you to their own favourite places in the wilderness of the archipelago. There will also be time for those who want to learn about Scandinavian outdoor culture, kayak technique, navigation and how to cook food on the camping stoves.
Stockholm Archipelago consists of more than 30 000 islands, islets and skerries spread along 150 km of coast in a 80 km wide belt. The guides know their way around and will guide you, and you will have great equipment to support your experience.
