Canoing on The Telemark Canal

Telemark Kanalcamping offers a large choice of canoes and kayaks for rent.

The company Telemark Kanalcamping offers a large choice of canoes and kayaks for rent. We are located only 200m away from the Lunde lock, which is a junction for boats on the Telemark canal. Transportation of people and equipment as well as guided tours and canoe courses are available on request. Paddling on the Telemark canal is appropriate for people of all ages and skill levels, whether a short day trip or a trip over several days. The canal has a fascinating old lock system which is exciting to watch as they open the gates manually. The combination of small canal waterways with larger lakes and cultural landscape with pristine natural landscapes make for a great paddling experience. It is organized so that you portage your equipment around the locks, but if you wish, you can go through the locks on your canoe/kayak during the main season. At the end of the tour you can have a meal at the restaurant at the Lunde lock, or take a walk through the park with swimming grounds and play equipment.
