Umekajak rents kayaks in Umeå in Västerbotten, with a starting point at Karlsborgs småbåtshamn and Norrbyskär. From here you paddle Umeälven and the coast outside the town.
What they offer
They rent single and double kayaks by the half day, full day or 24 hours. A popular trip is to paddle down Umeälven starting on Ön and finishing in Holmsund, Stöcke, Strömbäck or Kont. Paddle and life jacket are included.
Good to know
The river is mostly quiet, but check the flow and the wind, especially closer to the coast. Bring a map for longer trips and always wear a life jacket.
