Paddla på Edsken is listed at Edsken Camping in Hofors. KAYAKOMAT describes a self-service rental system: choose a single kayak, tandem kayak or stand-up paddleboard, book online, then use a code sent by email and SMS to unlock the equipment. The company says its stations are available around the clock and that customers can book ahead or spontaneously on site.

A rental starts at two hours and can last for several days. The equipment locker includes a personal flotation device, paddles and spray skirts. When your rental ends, return the gear clean and lock it back up. KAYAKOMAT says paddling is easiest on a calm day and recommends reviewing its safety guidance before setting out, even if you have paddled before. Stay close to shore and clear of motorboat routes. Attach the wrist tether to the paddle; on a SUP, attach the ankle tether too.

Good to know

Book online in advance or spontaneously on site. Review KAYAKOMAT’s safety guidance before setting out, and stay close to shore and clear of motorboat routes.
