Big Timber raft package » Granö Beckasin

Q: Price

Price from SEK 1410/person per night (example of family of 2 adults and 2 kids sharing a hotel cabin and a raft)

A taste of the wilderness and self-guided adventures

Timber rafting with an overnight stay in a flying tent is a classic Scandinavian summer adventure. Bring your family or a group of friends and create wonderful memories.

In this package you get to try timber rafting for two days, including a night in the great outdoors that you’ll spend in a flying tent.

After check-in at Granö Beckasin, you begin building the raft. An experienced guide will instruct onsite. You’ll use a specially designed building station, a pile of prepared timber logs and lots of rope. The construction part usually takes 2,5–3 hours. After this you’ll enjoy a lovely dinner and a good night’s sleep.

After breakfast the next day it’s time for the adventure at sea (or river, rather). The raft is launched. We’ll also give you a laminated map, first aid and safety and rescue equipment, outdoor kitchen equipment and everything you’ll need for your night outdoors.

Once you’re on the river, the raft will glide slowly down stream. You and your group can enjoy the birdlife, a swim, the view of the deep forest and open fields. The birdlife is especially rich along the river.

With the map you navigate easily along the river. After a few hours you reach the spot for your overnight stay. There is a great swimming spot here, a barbeque hut, places to sit and an outhouse. In this basic camp spot you’ll rig your flying tent (or regular tent if you prefer) and cook dinner by the campfire.

The following day you take off again. Once you reach the final destination, you give us a call and then begin to take apart the raft. This takes about an hour. We’ll come and get you and take you back to Granö Beckasin where a well deserved dinner and a bed awaits.
