Duke of Edinburgh Gold

In summer 2007, six young people aged 15-16 from Cressine in Essex travelled with their two adult supervisors to Värmland in western Sweden for four days of wilderness canoeing and wild camping on our Canoe on Rottnan experience.

This year, Duke of Edinburgh Gold groups will be taking on the challenging Bergslagen and Svartälven routes.

If you are planning the Expedition component of your DofE Award, Sweden offers a wealth of opportunities for original and challenging experiences, while being easily and affordably accessible from the UK.

For example, we offer a wide range of affordable wilderness canoeing experiences from 4 to 14 days, or for an unusual taste of life on the river, how about building and piloting your own log raft down the meandering river Klarälven?

Sweden is an excellent choice for Duke of Edinburgh expeditions in any season, and we will be happy to help you tailor your trip to meet your expedition criteria.
