Join Gutsy Girls for a 4-night winter kayaking, hiking, and snowshoeing adventure in Norway’s majestic fjordlands. Designed for beginners, this retreat blends guided activities, cosy cabin living, and the raw beauty of Norway’s winter wilderness.
Why Winter Kayaking?
- A Fjord Like No Other – Paddle through the serene waters of Lysefjord, surrounded by snow-draped cliffs and cascading waterfalls. Winter kayaking offers a peaceful, crowd-free way to explore Norway’s largest fjord.
- Beginner-Friendly, Confidence-Building – With stable double kayaks and drysuits to keep you warm, this adventure is perfect for first-time paddlers. You’ll build skills while soaking in the scenery.
- A New Perspective – Swap paddles for snowshoes and hiking boots to explore frozen forests and climb to iconic viewpoints like Pulpit Rock, transformed by winter’s quiet magic.
Highlights:
- Guided Kayaking: Paddle Lysefjord’s icy waters for two days, led by expert guides in stable double kayaks.
- Snowshoeing in Sirdal: Trek through untouched snowscapes in the Sirdal mountains, with a fireside lunch break.
- Winter Hiking: Climb to Pulpit Rock for panoramic fjord views, far from the summer crowds.
- Outdoor Cooking: Learn to cook over open flames using local ingredients—deer, fish, seaweed, and more.
- Wild Swimming & Sauna: Brave the fjord’s icy waters, then warm up in a waterfront sauna.
- Cosy Cabin Living: Share a waterside cabin with fellow adventurers, enjoying hearty meals and starlit evenings.
This adventure is ideal for women seeking connection, challenge, and immersion in nature. Whether you’re kayaking beneath waterfalls or snowshoeing through silent forests, you’ll leave feeling empowered and inspired.
