Experience adventure along the coast of Blekinge: Discover perhaps Sweden's longest kayaking route spanning 240 km!

Blekinge is known for its beautiful archipelago, but there is also an opportunity to paddle along the entire coast. With a kayak or canoe, you can explore the coastal areas in a unique way and get up close and personal with nature.

Paddling along the coast is a challenging but rewarding experience. From Valje to Torhamn, a distance of over 240 kilometers, the terrain varies from open sea to sheltered bays and fjords.

Along the way, you can stop at small fishing villages, beautiful beaches, and historical sites. There is also an opportunity to explore the many islands along the coast, where you can discover untouched beaches and forests, and perhaps even spot seals and sea eagles. Find the kayaking routes here:
