White Water Paddling/Riverboarding on Spitsbergen 18 years 7 months ago #9322

Most rivers on Spitsbergen are flat, shallow and boring but NOT this river.
This river has a lot of water and mostly WW 2-3 with some class 4 rapids.
To get to the river it will take some days of walking/skiing over glaciers (using the kayaks as a sledge).

So the approach will be really special!!
The whole trip is going to be really special but also very demanding, because everything has to be transported by walking/skiing. But The area is breathtaking!!

This trip will be very`cool`, adventurous and funny. It is also possible to do small rivers which are streaming over the glaciers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The people who join this trip should have a great sense of adventure and be prepared for heavy walks.

The trip will take place somewhere in july/begin of august 2007 and will be 2-3 weeks long.
Everyone who is interested in joining this trip should send an email to:
