We have compiled a selection of recommended routes on our website, which have proven to be particularly suitable based on our experience. These routes are ideal if you want to minimize portages or avoid returning on the same path. If you wish, you can leave the main routes anytime to expand your tour—this is possible in most areas.
On-site, we take the time for individual tour planning with you. You will receive practical advice on safety, navigation, and personal tips, ensuring you are well-prepared before heading out.
How far can I paddle per day?
- Canoe: 10–15 km per day
- Kayak: 12–20 km per day
If you are paddling alone, you will generally reach the higher end of the range. In larger groups, it’s advisable to plan for slightly shorter distances. With prior paddling experience, you can often achieve more, as you’ll be better at judging your limits.
Do I need a map?
We recommend the Dalslands Kanal map from our shop. It’s also available directly at our rental station. For detailed route planning, we suggest ordering the map in advance. It displays all official campsites, waterways, locks, and important terrain markers.
