Looking for a nature experience that gets your pulse racing? Viking Adventure in Haugesund offers RIB trips all summer long – a fast-paced way to experience both the open sea and the beautiful islands around it on one and the same trip.

After all, what is a holiday without a little speed and excitement?
There are many ways to experience Lysefjorden, but if you ask the experienced guides and outdoor enthusiasts at Nordic Paddling, kayaking is the best.

Saltråk offers both guided tours and board hire, so all you have to do is find your balance and paddle away.
