COVIV19 UPDATE: Event postponed until 2022

Sorry for the inconvenience but since Norway is currently closed to Swedish nationals and other countries, we have made the decision to postpone the second Nordic Roundup.

We are working on a local alternative in Sweden in the fall.

In 2020, The Norwegian Packraft Association is in charge of the event.

We’re excited to present the second Nordic Packraft Roundup that this year will be held in Norway. The Nordic Roundup will be held each year in either of the countries Sweden, Finland or Norway. It’s an event that’s open for everyone!

The second edition will take place at Westerheim in Rendalen, a private farm right next to the river Femundselva and it will take place at 4-7. June.

There’s plenty of space on the fields and woods around the farm for tents, motorhomes, caravans, hammock or your preferred way to camp. There will be a camping fee for 100 NOK (about 10 euro) for each night per person, to cover the cost of the event and renting the farm.

This is an event suited for everyone. You’ll find paddlers of all levels and a lot of options, from relaxing trips on flat water, enjoying the nature, to rough class 3 and 4 rivers.
