FAMILIES
Please, book and let us know you're family so we can adjust the tour. We don't mix families with other groups due to different wants & needs.
PRIVATE
It's simple for us to arrange your paddle experience as a private event, and we offer this at a very reasonable price. Reach out to us if you're interested.
GROUP
Consider your wish of the day - our kayaking delight is meant as the easiest and less time demanding trip.
Customized, personal and intimate
Our very small groups of maximum six guests make for a private and easy going experience. If you're a group of four or more, we're happy to make your trip private at no extra cost.
The Natural North takes full advantage of five unique paddle locations. This allows us to adapt to the best conditions for an ideal kayaking experience, especially for beginners.
The awe-inspiring peaks of Ånderdalen National Park and the sourrounding archipelagoes with remote beaches and lush islands is an incredible arena. Our guests consistently shared enthusiastic feedback about the joy of discovering them.
Our trip policy aims at a lower yield, but a bigger impact by lowering the guest count and increasing our time spent together and your chance to connect with nature. That's the key to quality experiences in a pristine, natural and wild landscape.

Lisette de HeidenAmazing kayaking trip on Senja with Rune - he found the perfect spot for the weather conditions (must’ve been the only place on Senja with sun!) and we had a full 4 hours of kayaking and lunch:) He knows a lot about the region and is clearly passionate about what he does. 10/10 recommend!
OliverWir hatten eine wundervolle Zeit mit Rune! Die Tour war super geplant und durchgeführt. Aufgrund der Wetterprognose hat uns Rune spontan vorgeschlagen die Tour einen Tag vorzuziehen. Das hat sich gelohnt. Wir hatten einen wundervollen Abend auf dem Fjord mit vielen Vögeln, 2 atemberaubenden Seeadlern!, und kristallklarem Wasser. Rune hat uns viele spannende Informationen mitteilen können. Er hat sogar einige Fotos und Videos von uns beim paddeln gemacht. Sehr cool!
Die Tour war es definitiv wert. Gerne wieder!
LasseWe booked the Midnight Sun Tour with Rune. Due to weather conditions, we had to reschedule the tour, but the communication with Rune was fast and easy!
We had an excellent tour with him through the fjord into the sunset, with amazing views on the mountains and a little break with Kombuca by the lighthouse.
We also got some information about Senja, the Anderdålen National Park and the different animals, and Rune took videos and photos of us during the trip!
We will definitely come back for another tour in some time , it was simply amazing !
Laura LewandoskiThe Natural North Kayak tour is the absolute best way to see beautiful Senja!! Rune is a wonderful and informative guide ensuring that we went to the optimal place for the weather conditions for the day!! With the small group size you can really enjoy the experience without the stress. The lunch from a local staple was a great break from paddling while still enjoying the scenery!! Could not recommend enough!!!
Ramòn MoragregaWe had a great experience with The Natural North. Rune was very friendly and flexible with us. If We come back to the island we will not doubt to rent with them again. Thank you very much.
Oh, the midnight sun
Stay traditional
Culture
Cabin
Retreat
A few days in the traditional Culture Cabin is a true norwegian cabin-life experience. Shoreline fishing down the road, beach strolling in the morning, coffee on the porch, bonfire and sauna in the evenings - the list is long, and our guests have always left fully charged after their retreat back to nature.
Southern Senja with it's peninsulas is a paddle paradise of archipelagos, ancient pine forests, sandy beaches, and steep rock faces rising from roadless fjords. Here at the end of Senja, where no bridges or ferries go further, visitors come to slow down, breathe deep, and savour the wild Arctic coast
Hand tailored & infused cabin experiences
Since 2011 my guiding experience has taught me that the most memorable experiences arise when culture is combined with the right level of physical challenge and personal engagement, especially in small, intimate groups.
Combine a Culture Cabin Retreat with learning the art of harvesting from nature and cooking slowgrown wild dishes directly from the source. From fishing, kayaking, berry picking or sea weed harvesting we can supply our kitchen with real food, cook real dishes and then I'll let you off alone with the sauna on.

We had an amazing kayak tour! Since it was just the two of us, Rune let us help plan the route which made it very personal and relaxing. The evening sun on the water was stunning, and Rune shared great local insights. We highly recommend this tour!
