About
Kayak hire – Infoteket at Tingnes
Mjøsa is Norway's largest lake, and is excellent for kayaking!
Infoteket at Tingnes offers kayak hire, kayaking courses, and kayaking trips for groups of 5 to 15 people.
Kayak hire
Kayaks can be pre-booked or hired on the day, and there are two different types:
– 1-person kayaks
– 2-person kayaks
Wetsuits and dry-sacks are available at an additional charge.
An introduction course is recommended, but is not a requirement.
Kayaking courses
In May, June and August we offer a 3-hour introduction course as well as a 16-hour basic skills course.
Courses outside of set dates can be arranged for groups of 5 or more. Please contact us for an offer.
Group kayaking trips
Separate kayaking trips, led by an experienced guide, are available for groups of 5-15 people. The trips are suitable for most, but participants must be able to swim. Kayaking experience is not necessary – the guide will take you through the basics before we hit the water.
Kayaking comes highly recommended as a cool and fun activity for private and corporate groups, and there is opportunity to add lunch or similar along the way. Get in touch to arrange a kayaking trip for you and your group.
