The Paddling Dutchmen

Join us on our outdoor adventures! Canoe expeditions through Sweden’s untouched wilderness — multi-day trips in Glaskogen, Lapland & Värmland. Wild camping, portages, campfire cooking and the rhythm of paddling under the Nordic light.

We are Dutch friends escaping our corporate jobs for moments of adventure, slowing-down and reflection. Our mission is to inspire people to get in touch with their primitive self.

During our outdoor trips we reflect on how living in nature goes back to the core of what us humans were built for. Our evolution as species equipped us exactly the right instincts, senses and reflexes to thrive. Talents we hardly use anymore in our modern city life. Going back to nature, brings us back to the core of our being.

The Paddling Dutchmen

Sometimes nature stops you right in its tracks 🫎. Deep in the Swedish forest, we found a moose lying still in the water. What do you think happened to it?
