An exciting half or full-day rafting adventure at Trofors with RiverNorth

Join a half‑day rafting trip on the Auster‑Vefsna River. This is one of Norway’s most exciting rivers, with a strong sense of wilderness. It flows through narrow gorges and open stretches from Hattfjelldal to Trofors, and depending on the water level, different sections are rafted throughout the season. Since participants wear waterproof gear the whole time, rafting here works well in any weather, and on rainy days the trip feels a bit wilder and more dramatic.

The minimum age for participation is 14 years, and the activity takes about 3.5 hours from the time you put on your wetsuit until you’re changed and ready for new adventures afterward. Wet suits, helmets, and life jackets are provided as part of the tour. The river water is cold, so bring wool underwear, thin wool socks, shoes that can get wet, and towels for changing after the trip.
