Trondheim: Kayaking on the Nidelva River with Instructor

Paddling in Trondheim is more than an activity – it’s an escape, an exploration, and a chance to connect with nature and culture. Whether you’re a solo traveler, a couple seeking romance, or a family in search of adventure, paddling down Trondheim’s rivers promises a perfect day out for everyone. Glide by colorful old warehouses, the medieval Nidaros Cathedral, and the formidable Kristiansten Fortress, immersing yourself in the rich history and picturesque landscapes.

We also explore the river´s channel near the harbour and see sights hidden from the usual hiker. Trondheim is waiting to be discovered, one paddle stroke at a time. Whether you’re a seasoned paddler or a novice, it’s an activity that can be enjoyed by people of all skill levels and ages.
