Explore the stunning beauty of the inner archipelago by kayak or canoe in the Bogesund Nature Reserve. This peaceful and picturesque route is perfect for families looking to enjoy a relaxing and scenic outdoor adventure.
Paddle through Bogesund, a place where Vikings once lived over 1,000 years ago. Now a nature reserve, the area is home to lush green meadows, ancient oak trees, and traditional farms with grazing horses. As you glide along the narrow fjord, keep your eyes peeled for beavers in their natural habitat, adding a touch of wildlife magic to your journey.
Bogesund is a paradise for birdwatchers. You might catch sight of an osprey or a white-tailed sea eagle soaring overhead. Other coastal birds like oystercatchers, grey herons, lapwings, cormorants, and seagulls make this area a haven for nature lovers.
The sheltered waters of this route, free from heavy ferry traffic and large vessels, make it ideal for beginners and families with young children. It’s a perfect place for a relaxed family kayaking trip, complete with an outdoor picnic. There are also several great spots for BBQs, swimming, and even hiking trails, where you can stretch your legs and enjoy the beauty of the surrounding forest. If you’re lucky, you may find wild berries to pick along the way!
For those looking for more adventure, consider extending your paddle around Nibbleviken. It’s a beautiful area that offers additional opportunities for exploration and enjoyment of the archipelago’s serene waters.
