FACTS ABOUT THE RAFT AND THE EXCURSION DOWN KLARÄLVEN

Size: 4x4 meters (16 m2). Large enough for 2-5 persons depending on length of trip and how many adults/ children. For a larger family we will enlarge the raft at no extra cost (4x6m) = (24m2). ( A fee is otherwise charged ---if you desire the larger sized raft).
SEASON: app 15 may to 15 september (depending on weather/ water conditions).
RAFTING: The journey is done in stages and the time it takes varies due to winds, rain, water level and the season. Some stages can take from 12 hrs (low water) and the quickest app. 4 hrs ( high water). Normally it will take 6-8 hrs to reach the different stages. We advise you on how far you should travel each day. If you travel further than advised remember that your arrival time at your final destination will vary accordingly. That is your choice. The raft must be returned to the right place and at the right time or an extra charge will be added to your fee.
Never travel on the raft during the night. Trees can be hanging out from shore over water and there´s a risk to get into a crash. Anchor the raft properly or sleep on the shore. When anchoring, be generous with the line so the raft can float freely with the moving water. Rope or anchor is supplied with each raft. When anchoring on shore with rope, pull up the raft and use the shovel (or tie it to a tree) to anchor with. The shovel is also for toilet use, and must be used. Parents please help your children use it properly. Dig deeply and away (minimum 100 mtr) from the shore and water. Remember that others also want to enjoy the river, its sandbanks and its fishing coves. Leave the areas as clean as you would want to find them.

FACTS ON LAKE RAFTING

A calm and pleasant living. More fun than a cabin and almost the same adventure as rafting down river. You also have the "advantage" of easy access to your car, making it possible to do other excursions in the area. There are a lot of small lakes with excellent fishing.
We have 19 lakes with 16m2 rafts and 3 lakes with 24m2 rafts. If you´re two families or just a bunch of friends we also have 3 lakes where there are two 16 m2 rafts.
Parking distance is between 30-200 m .
For our wheeled customers we have a raft with a ramp. This lies in a perfect spot, lovely but comfortable too. Parking is by the lake and there is an "outhouse" -a sort of toilett, and a grill area.
Size: same as rafting.
Equipment: same as rafting.
Price: same price/per person as 6 day rafting.
