Do you want to feel your heart pumping on your way up one of northern Norway's highest mountains and enjoy the northern light all winter? Here you can experience the rush of adventure daily.
At Mountain sports og Kayaking, we lead an active outdoor life, that is to say, we encounter nature through our activities. In the autumn, we paddle both sea and river, try outdoor climbing, go for walks on mountains, glaciers and inside caves. In late autumn, we climb indoors and complete the steeplechase. We also take the kayaks into the pool to practice the eskimo rolling. When winter is finally here, we strap on our skis, stand in a lift, go to the mountains and kite on the snow. This makes us well prepared for our line trip to the Alps in the spring.
With us you get:
- Kayaking in rivers
- Kayaking at sea on the Helgeland coast
- Roller training (kayak)

In addition, we have all the Helgeland Coast as our nearest neighbour. In the autumn we also make a visit to Lofoten.
The area arond our school has some of the world's finest rivers for both sea and river kayaking. If you fancy a year of action, social activity and experiences, you will have the best time with us.
