Come experience the beauty of Lemmenjoki through stand-up paddleboarding or packrafting. We'll start the trip with a boat ride to Kultamahima, near the site of the first gold discovery in Lemmenjoki. After exploring the discovery site, we'll inflate the boards, pack our gear, and begin paddling down the river. We'll camp at designated campsites in our own tents.
Around the campsites, you can take walks in the surrounding areas or fish in the pristine waters of Lemmenjoki.
