Femund Canoe Camp is a family-run business established in 1974, with a long tradition of welcoming guests to the Femund region. Today, the camp is run by Rick Noordink and Karin Magnusson, continuing the original vision of offering simple, nature-based experiences with a personal touch. We manage a small number of cabins and accommodations on-site, allowing us to focus on quality, atmosphere, and individual guest experiences. What sets us apart is our hands-on approach and local knowledge. We take the time to meet guests on arrival, provide maps and advice, and help plan trips based on experience level and weather conditions. Whether you are heading out for a multi-day canoe trip or just exploring the area for a day, we make sure you feel prepared and confident. Our team is small, approachable, and passionate about the outdoors. We aim to create a relaxed and informal atmosphere where guests feel welcome and well taken care of, without it ever feeling crowded or commercial. Guests can expect honest advice, practical support, and the freedom to explore the surrounding wilderness at their own pace. Our goal is to offer a genuine experience of nature, with just the right balance between simplicity and comfort.
