Kanotcentralen i Olofström (HalenKanot) is on lake Halen in northern Blekinge – a wide lake and forest landscape sometimes called Sweden's southernmost wilderness. Here you rent canoe, kayak and SUP for trips on quiet lake water with plenty of islands and rest spots.
What they offer
From here you reach long canoe routes through Halens naturreservat and the surrounding lakes, with prepared campsites along the way if you want to paddle for several days. Olofström has been named one of Sweden's best outdoor municipalities, and the lake system is the backbone of that offering.
Good to know
The lake water is steady all season, but Halen is large – bring a map, plan day stages to match your ability and always wear a life jacket. Check current opening hours and book with the centre before you go.
