»If you feel at home and regard your sleeping bag as if it were a four-poster bed, then you have caught the Norway bug! In this case, time and place take on a completely different dimension. You will no longer be ruled according to time but by hunger and thirst. Only one question will preoccupy you: Which river shall I kayak today?«
You will not find the highest mountains in Norway, nor the largest cities or longest rivers: but the country is still one of superlatives with majestic fjords, unspoilt virgin lakes and dazzling rivers. No other country in Europe has as much water to offer as Norway. It is a Mecca for whitewater paddlers, whether novices, enthusiasts or cracks.
This German-English book opens the door to paradise for whitewater kayakers: It contains 104 descriptions of stretches of rivers from class I to VII covering a distance of over 700 kilometres. And it also contains maps, travel directions, numerous photos and short stories.
Discover paradise in Europe�s number one whitewater country!
