Freek Skrevet 7. september 2008 Skrevet 7. september 2008 Hallo, sorry for skriving på engelsk. My name is Freek and I'm a seakayaker from the Netherlands. I've just finished a trip rond the island Orust in Sweden; http://picasaweb.google.nl/zeekayakforum/Orust Now I'm planning a trip from Kristiansand to Larvik.(207 km) for next spring. So I can leave my car in Hirthals(Denmark). I've planned the trip on Garmin's bluechart. I want to do it in 5 days with tripdistances of 39,41,43,44,40 km/day I'm interested in places to rest/camp campings and beautifull spots. Does anyone have usefull waypoints/tracks/routes for me, I can use ? Can I mail my planned (GPS)route to anyone to look at it for mistakes/better suggestions? Other problem is where to start. The ferry will arrive at midnight. Closest camping I can find is Roligheden, but that's to far to walk. Is it light enough in june to paddle there at night ? Is the beginning of my track a good startpoint ? Takk på forhånd Siter

Does anyone have usefull waypoints/tracks/routes for me, I can use ? I am writing a book about the area from Kristiansand - Risor, and it will be published for Christmas. In western direction I wrote a book last year: http://www.padleguiden.no/ You have found the best place to put out your kayak. Your chart show a sandy beach for start - in the centre of the city. If you go SW you can camp on an island after 10 min. Or you ca go SE, and find many beautiful places in under an hour. Places in Kristiansand is discribed in the book above. I think it is light enough to paddle in the nigt in june, but bring with you a light. I can check up your campsites until Langesund when I have written my new book. Send me an email with your route after Chrismas! Happy planning! -lars PS: The TV-station NRK1 mada program from the area you are paddling through this summer: http://www1.nrk.no/nett-tv/klipp/405658 (from Lillesand/grimstad) Siter
peik Skrevet 20. september 2008 Skrevet 20. september 2008 In Norway you don't need to find a camping. You can put up your tent everywhere where is at least 150 meters from the nearest house, but you are of course not allowed to camp in agricultural areas, public parks etc. Siter
Øyvind1980 Skrevet 20. september 2008 Skrevet 20. september 2008 I think you can rest assured that if there was ever anyone who could answer these questions it will be Lars right here on this forum Sounds like a fun little trip that. Good luck planning it. I am afraid I dont have much advice to offer in this particular area. Siter

But I try to plan it from camping to camping. Why? In case off bad weather I prefer a cabin. In good weather we will camp 'in the wild'. And we need drinking water so now and then. And afther a few days in 'smelly' neoprene , a hot shower should be nice. Siter

Freek Skrevet 3. juni 2009 Forfatter Skrevet 3. juni 2009 We’re back home. All went well. Tuesday, one of us had to quit, due back-problems, We arranged transport for him(thanx Kjetil) , and followed our plan. We took a break (in the rain, tuesday afternoon) at the Arendal kajakclub, but nobody was there. We ‘ve used some escapes due the the hard wind on Wednesday. North of Risor, we went into the lake (Lonene?) and followed the lakes to Barlandskilen. A deer was swimming across the lake, and swam right between us. We did 60km that day. west from Langesund. Friday at 1.30 PM we arrived at Larvik, after 210 km in 5 days. more pics; http://picasaweb.google.nl/zeekayakforum/KrisLarvik Siter
