Enjoy a calm night
Being out in the fresh air requires a lot of energy, so a good night’s sleep is important. At Sjoa Familierafting, we offer various types of accommodation. Feel free to bring your own caravan, motorhome or tent and set up on our camping area which has a beautiful view of Gudbrandsdalslågen, or make use of one of our accommodation options.
For those who want a different kind of experience, it is possible to live in a lavvu on the shore of the river. It is a special experience and brings you even closer to nature.
We also have newly refurbished cabins with bunk beds and enough space for a family of up to five people. All cabins are equipped with a fridge and a small table so you can eat indoors if you wish.
We also have a cozy family room of approx. 30 m2 with two double beds, dining area, fridge, kettle and a sink. There is room for an extra cot, should there be a need for this. The family room is on the second floor of Nordre Stuggu, a beautiful house from 1745 with views over both the area and Gudbrandsdalslågen. There is, of course, access to the sanitary building and guest kitchen, which are centrally located on the farm.
When you are very active, you get hungry. When that happens, you can either use our simple guest kitchen for cooking, you can grill, or buy simple meals such as homemade toast or pizza from us. If you want us to serve meals during your stay, these should be pre-ordered. We serve homemade breakfast, lunch and a 2-course dinner.

more than rafting – Outdoor experiences without a screen
Sjoa Family Rafting is about more than just rafting. It’s about being together, mastering new challenges and enjoying the scenic surroundings without electronic devices. There are activities for both young and old – from family-friendly rafting and Stand Up Paddle (SUP) to canyoning, adventure trails for the little ones and climbing in Sjoa Climbing Park.
rafting for the whole family
Our family rafting is designed with children in mind. Safe, fun and just the right amount of challenge! Are your kids ready to feel the current take hold as they paddle through small rapids? Or maybe jump in the river and float with the current? No matter the weather, you can always go rafting – you’ll get wet whether the sun is shining or it’s raining. Our experienced guides ensure that everyone has a safe and exciting rafting experience adapted to their age and level.
challenging activities on land
For those who want a little more ground contact, we offer even more experiences. Canyoning with rappelling in regulated river gorges and swimming in puddles. In Sjoa Climbing Park, children can challenge themselves at safe heights, while the adventure trail offers small challenges and games in nature. If you want a quieter time, there are beautiful swimming spots with their own sandy beach and fishing areas along the riverbank.
accommodation with soul and charm
The adventure doesn’t end when the day is over. Sleep in a cozy cabin, pitch a tent by the river or get a true wilderness experience in a lavvo. Our accommodation options provide a perfect combination of comfort and closeness to nature – just the way it should be after a day full of adventures.
meals made with care
Hungry children need a fill-up! With us you can enjoy homemade food made from good Norwegian ingredients. Choose between child-friendly meals from our kitchen, homemade pizza or order a tasty 2-course dinner that gives you energy for new experiences. And yes – we also have waffles and ice cream for those who deserve an extra reward!
