Kayaking Through Småland's Garden
Lakes & Islands
Embark on a fully immersive journey through the enchanted lakes of the Garden of Småland, an experience we offer in the most intimate and adventurous way known to us: from the cockpit of a kayak. This full-day adventure, led by our expert guide, invites you to explore the nooks and islands, each with its own tale to tell.
Your adventure begins at Wallby Säteri in Skirö. Our small group of fellow adventurers set out together, gliding through the tranquil waters of Lake Saljen, each paddle stroke bringing us deeper into the essence of Småland. Enjoy refreshing swims, refine your kayaking skills, and, for the curious, botanise amongst the local flora. As we navigate the lakes we keep our eyes peeled for the vibrant fauna; soaring white tailed Eagles and the majestic moose to name a few.
