Why Autumn Is One of the Best Times to Visit Norway

Many of our visitors overlook autumn, but it's one of the most rewarding seasons to experience Norway. As the mountains and valleys turn brilliant shades of gold, orange, and crimson, you get quieter trails, fewer visitors, crisp mountain air, and dramatic landscapes at their most colourful. Plus, waterfalls are often at their fullest after late-summer rains!

For rafting:

  • Swimwear (to wear under the wetsuit)
  • Thermal underwear (if cold)
  • Extra clothes for changing after the trip
  • Towel
  • Sunscreen

Regarding weather conditions:

Whitewater rafting is fantastic whether it's sunny or rainy!

  • Thermal underwear (for colder conditions)
  • Own gloves (for comfort or warmth)
  • Windstopper jacket or rain jacket (for windy or cold weather)
  • Sunscreen
  • Sunglasses
  • Enough water for the tour

Optional:

  • Own pedals or saddle
How difficult is the mountain bike tour?

It's graded from skill levels 1 to 4, perfect for beginners and intermediate riders.

Do i need prior experience to go whitewater rafting?

No, you don't need any prior experience at all.

The majority of our guests are first-timers, and everything—from our trips to our equipment and briefings—is tailored to make beginners feel comfortable. Our seasoned guides will give you a safety orientation before hitting the water and will be there to guide and coach you through every rapid. No previous whitewater experience is required—we've got you covered!

Is the bike included in the tour package?

Yes it is! The mountain bike is included, saving you the hassle of bringing your own bike across continents. ;)

Can i use my own gear for mountain biking, such as helmet, pedals or gloves?

Yes, absolutely!

Our mountain bikes are equipped with standard flat pedals featuring pins. However, we also offer clip-in SPD and Crankbrothers pedals for those who prefer using clip-in shoes.

If you wish to utilize your own pedals and/or saddle, kindly bring them along, and upon your arrival, we'll happily replace them for you.

To ensure we accommodate your preferences smoothly, please notify us in advance by replying to your booking confirmation email. This way, we can prepare accordingly for your visit.

Do i need to be physically fit to go rafting?

For everyone joining us on a rafting adventure, we suggest being in good physical shape.

If you have any medical concerns but still want to join the rafting trip, it's always wise to consult with your doctor beforehand. Your safety and well-being are our top priorities.

Will i fall out of the raft? if i do, what should i do?

Our primary goal is for everyone to stay safely in the boat, but surprisingly, some actually enjoy the thrill of going overboard. It can be initially disorienting, yet exhilarating. Many people have taken multiple trips and never fallen in, while some experience it on their first outing. It's all part of the river rafting experience.

Before entering the river, you'll receive thorough guidance on handling an unexpected dip and how to navigate the water confidently. By following your guide's instructions, your unexpected 'swim' might just become the highlight of your adventure—a tale to share with friends later on!

Should i tip my guide?

Tipping isn't customary in Norway, as it is e.g. in the USA. Our guides put in considerable effort to ensure your experience is both enjoyable and safe, maintaining the high standards set by Outdoor Norway.

While tipping is recognized as a standard practice in the industry and is always welcomed, it's never an obligation. It's entirely up to your discretion whether you choose to leave a tip. Your appreciation for the service provided is greatly valued either way.

Can i leave my bag/luggage at the base?

Yes absolutely, that's not an issue at all.

We have shelves available for storing your belongings while you're out on a tour. Rest assured, there's always a member of our staff present at the base, so your items will be securely looked after— nothing goes missing on our watch!

Do i need to sign a waiver?

Yes.

Upon joining any activity, a waiver acknowledging risks must be read and signed. For minors, a parent or guardian is required to sign the waiver.
