KAYAK-/CANOE TOUR 01

Östervallskog/Björkenäs to Ed

Kayak-/Canoe tour from Östervallskog/Björkenäs to Ed

Distance: ca 90 km

Duration: 5 days

This tour takes you from Björkenäs (Östervallskog) to Ed, from below Töcksfors crossing large lakes.

The road leads through the Östen, the Töck, the Foxen and finally the Stora Le.

On this tour, it is wise to look at the weather report for the planned time and pay attention to the wind direction.

The route leads in part directly along the Norwegian border.

Unfortunately it is way overcrowded a bit within the main holiday season.

Unusual features:

In Töcksfors you will have to carry the boat over land outside the season. (About 2 km on a street.)

Groups of more than 5 persons must use the Dano resting places!

Here is a map with all resting places, coordinates, description and pictures.
