Röjdån is a small river with calm flowing waters which empties into Lake Övre Fryken at Torsby. Along the way it widens in places to create small lakes and runs through a cultural landscape - a fertile valley tour with fine views of the mountains to the north and east.
The canoe tour starts at Torsby and after canoeing to the lake Kläggen you return to Torsby again. 45km of relaxing paddling and two short land transports in each direction. Keep a lookout for wildlife - the forests of Värmland are home to a wide variety of flora and fauna, and if you keep quiet and still near dusk you may see beaver in the river.

As with all our canoe experiences in this region, this is not a guided tour - this is a discovery of your own, taken at your own pace, and you will choose your own camping spot each night. You will be given detailed guidance and advice before the start of your canoeing holiday.

"We had a great time and would thoroughly recommend it to friends." Michael, August 2010
"Nature Travels were really helpful in suggesting suitable trips and answering all the queries we had promptly and accurately. Thank you, we really enjoyed the trip, it was a great way to experience some of Sweden independently but with expert support and hire of equipment." Victoria, August 2010
"[We really enjoyed] staying in a cosy hut just the two of us on an isolated lake with a roaring fire after a full day of rain, then waking up to sunshine bright and early and finding a forest of teeny tiny mushrooms everywhere like a carpet!...Thanks for a great time at such short notice. We will definitely recommend you to our friends and families!" Thomas, July 2010
