SUP in Stockholm’s nature, SUP tour

SUP in Stockholm’s nature! On our nature reserve SUP adventure, we explore one of the protected zones of Stockholm. And what better way to travel than by waterway. We use Stand Up Paddle Boards to make our way through rivers and lakes. Floating through taiga forest and rock formations, we say hi to the local Canada goose or beavers that inhabit the area. Because of the shallow waters and sheltered area, the water temperature is pleasant and high wind is very rare, so don’t be afraid to get wet! 

 Highlights

  • Splash about on a SUP and have fun!
  • Explore Stockholm’s local nature reserves
  • Take a swim
  • Enjoy a picnic by the shore
  • Paddle through small lakes and rivers
  • Lay down on your SUP, float around and relax to the sound of birds and the rustling of the trees
  • Includes pickup and drop off at central Stockholm
  • Small, personal groups

”We had an absolutely brilliant day kayaking around the beautiful stockholm archipelago. My husband and daughters had kayaked before but it was my first time and our Guide Ben was really good and patient, so encouraging. This was a real highlight of our visit to this beautiful city and when we come back to Stockholm will definitely choose Green trails and hopefully Ben for our next outdoor adventure.”

”I’ve kayaked all over the world and never had an experience like this! Our guide Ben was personable and highly knowledgeable. We kayaked past several islands and stopped at one to take a beautiful hike to a lookout point. Ben walked barefoot in the forest as he pointed out everything you could eat and gave other interesting information about the flora and fauna. Bit of a forest guru too! Afterwards, we had a nice lunch and swim on the island and then kayaked back looking at the condors circle and dive and hear fun facts about Swedish culture and folklore. Great guidance, great equipment, great company!”

”We were fortunate to have a sunny day, see lots of eagles, herons, kingfishers, cormorants, gulls and even a seal. All of the logistical details were beautifully arranged, from transportation, food, water and snacks, kayaks and gear. The leaders were experienced, professional, personable, and knowledgable about the natural history of the area. It was clear that they take pride in and enjoy leading these trips. They took pains to tailor the day to the participants interests and abilities. I would happily go on another trip with this company.”

”I had done this amazing Sea Kayaking adventure with the Green Trails last year. I had so much fun it was the highlight of my Sweden trip! I went again this year and it was equally fun. Piotr my guide and owner of The Green Trails was extremely knowledgeable and I highly recommend it. Most people just go and see the same boring things and they miss out on true adventures and unique memories (and awesome work outs) this one had it all!”

Environment: We'll spend the day in a large nature reserve close to Stockholm. We make our way through small lakes and rivers, coming past deciduous (leaf)- but also taiga forest.

Wildlife: There are beaver lodges on the river as well as some of the lakes. The area is quite rich in birdlife. Deer and other mammals are also present, but as we spend most of the time on the water these are not likely to be spotted.
