In this course you will learn basic paddling techniques to take the step into the wonderful world of river paddling. You also receive training in safe behavior on the river, and the course leads to a so-called wet card in the Norwegian Paddling Association's course ladder.

The course is suitable for anyone between the ages of 16 and 60 who wants to learn about river paddling and have a great weekend of fun.

If you have paddled a sea kayak, you will probably learn techniques that you can later also use in the sea kayak.

What is required:
No preparation or knowledge is required to be able to take part in the course. All you need is to bring a drink and a snack. As well as wool/ super underwear, wool socks. On chilly days, it may be a good idea to bring a warm overcoat for use during the lunch break.

Wet card

Kayak and all necessary paddling equipment
Clothing (wet suit)
Vått & Vilt cap and drink bottle
