White-water rafting on the Torne River
A longer river tour , including a rapids stretch classed 3+, making this a full day’s excursion for the entire family. The tour has more wilderness characteristics and the highlight is Pauranki. We start
off about 40 minutes to the river. On the shore, everyone is equipped with wetsuits, shoes, helmets and life jackets and receives thorough instructions on safety routines. The boats are paddled and everyone participates in the journey downstream. We go ashore after about 30 minutes to enjoy a wilderness lunch of sandwiches, smoked reindeer meat, coffe and cakes.
Our journey continues and we soon arrive at the Pauranki rapids, a beautiful stretch with invigorating rapids. When the river calms down, everyone will have the opportunity to take a swim in the flowing water.
