Welcome to the Canoe Guide and to paddling in Sweden!

About the Canoe guide and the Canoe Trails
In the Canoe Guide there are over 500 canoe trails. Some of these are well maintained and taken care of by municipalities, associations or canoe centres. Canoe centres can usually provide good information about their nearby trails. Some canoe routes are very rarely paddled and may be overgrown and lack of information about the conditions. What it looks like and what you will meet on your tour regarding obstacles and challenges cannot be answered in advance. The Canoe Federation assumes no responsibility for the condition of the routes. Please use the comment fields in the Canoe Guide to provide information about routes you paddle. There you can also post pictures, it is a way to contribute to the page and to other canoeists.
