Winter Kayaking in Stockholm-City

Duration

3 hours

About

Looking for a unique winter activity? We provide dry suits and all necessary equipment for a safe and unique kayaking experience during the winter months.

Paddle your way through the heart of the city and enjoy spectacular views. Winter kayaking offers perfect conditions, as we have the waters basically for ourselves. We use tandem kayaks (more stable) by default, but we can provide single kayaks (previous experience needed) upon request. The tour takes you along the beautiful and historic neighbourhoods of Kungsholmen, Langholmen Södermalm, Gamla Stan and Lila Essingen. You'll paddle under charming bridges, past colourful buildings, and through peaceful waterways.

Our experienced kayak guide will provide you with insights into the history and culture of the city, as well as tips on the best spots for photos and sightseeing.

We will provide you with the right sized dry suit and boots which will keep you dry. However, you need to bring additional layers to wear under the dry suit to keep your warm. Please avoid cotton and jeans, use synthetic / wool (thermal) clothing.

Base layer
Warm thermal underwear (e.g. merino wool).

Mid layer
Hiking pants (no jeans) and a warm fleece (long sleeve).

Accessories:
2 pairs of warm wool socks
1 warm winter hat

Sauna (local experience)
There is an option during the checkout process to book a 1.5 h Sauna experience, which will be held immediately after the kayak tour.
