You will get an unique nature adventure during the trip on approx 10 km. You will meet both amusing and exacting rapids (from graduation 1-3) in this special long valley. Where the river is peaceful you`ll get the chance to bath and swim in the green turquise water from the bigest glacier on the mainland in Europe simultaneously looking around in the special surroundings.


We will also try to do surf-ride some pretty wave-tails during our trips. If you want to, we will find a suitable place to stop and serve some local meal. During the meal we can offer some entertainment such as local tradition folk music, theatre etc. Our local guides will do their best to make you satisfied and making a great adventure for you in this special valley.

Throught the exuberance valley we will pass by several mountain farms we can see up in the hill and maybe you`ll see deer grazing next to the river. The Mørkridsdalen have actually got the bigest deers in Norway.

The trip end peaceful in Skjolden where the river meets the europes longst fjord, the Sognefjord.
