Hårkan river 2 day paddle camping Experience.
Experience one of Jämtlands most beautiful rivers on a 2 day and 1 overnight camping tour! We set in below Edsforsen and paddle with the flow taking in the beauty of the upper parts of Hårkan. Flow here is steady and makes for easy paddling. There is a mix of slower open sections with some faster shallower parts, with plenty of opportunities to do some fishing along the way, there's Grayling, trout , perch and pike on offer.
We then stop for the night and make camp, cook on the open fire and enjoy the peace of the river environment.
Day 2 we wake up and brew the coffee fix breakfast then head out on the river again. the second day we paddle the lower parts of Hårkan, with some fun little rapids to navigate. The rapids are easy going, so nothing to worry about! Swimming and fishing can be done on the way, as well as just taking in this beautiful section of the river. We eventually arrive at Högfors kraftstation to our one and only portage. We set back in below the kraftstation and paddle the last section to Lit where Hårkan meets Indalsälven and this is where we finish.
