Trip description

We will meet at the bus stop in Bjurholm on Saturday morning. You’ll arrange your own transport to Bjurholm. There are buses going from Umeå NUS hospital to Bjurholm. After the meet-up in Bjurholm, we will get into the canoes and paddle down the river. After a day on the water and a stop for lunch, we exit in Agnäs. Here is where we will leave the boats. We’ll start the hike and after a short while we stop for the night. The guides will prepare dinner and dessert for all. Sunday morning, we will continue the hike back to Bjurholm along the river. We will enjoy the nature and have a lunch break half way back to Bjurholm. We will arrive in Bjurholm sometime in the afternoon. In Bjurholm there is a bus back to to IKSU in the afternoon. The tour is beginner-friendly.
