Canoe rental - Geilo Aktiv
Geilo Aktiv has 2 canoes for rent at the Ustedalsfjord in central Geilo.
Experience the Peace and Nature of Ustedalsfjorden by Canoe
This is a wonderful activity for both families and couples who want to experience the serenity and beauty of nature up close. The canoe trip offers the opportunity to explore the stunning Ustedalsfjorden—whether you paddle along the shoreline or cross to the other side. The area is rich in bird and wildlife, and the view of Geilo, the surrounding mountains, and ski slopes provides a fresh and exciting perspective on the landscape. You might even spot a mountain peak you’d like to hike the next day!
Information:
Duration: Full day
Included: Full-day rental of canoe, paddles, and life jackets
Age limit: At least one responsible person over the age of 18 must participate. Children must be accompanied by adults.
Meeting point: The canoes are easily accessible from the parking lot at Geilo Badestrand, located 2.5 km from the town center.
Equipment Pickup and Return:
Paddles and life jackets must be picked up and returned at an address along Hjalmevegen. Pickup and return are self-service, based on instructions provided at the time of booking. After booking, you will receive an email with a link that explains where and how to collect the equipment.
You’ll find the link under “View ticket” in your confirmation email. It is listed under “remarks” on your ticket.
The Canoes:
The sturdy Hasle canoes have three seats and are ideal for two adults and one to two small children. The canoes are secured with a combination lock and are located just west of Geilo Badestrand. Refer to the map and photo for exact placement.
How to Find the Canoes:
Walk west (to the right when facing the water from the parking lot) along the gravel path that follows the fjord. After a short distance, you’ll find a small bay where the canoes are ready for launch.
Respect for Nature:
Ustedalsfjorden is a nesting area for many bird species. During the summer months, we encourage visitors to be especially mindful by avoiding paddling into the reeds and by keeping a respectful distance from bird nests.
