Experience the archipelago from Idöborg

We offer a wide range of activities on Idöborg, at sea, and on the surrounding islands.

Kayaking & Excursions

Outdoor with Jonas Hållén

Jonas manages the kayak rental at Idöborg, guides groups, and organizes open water swimming, swimrun safaris, and other excursions in the area. He has been kayaking in the Nämdö archipelago for 25 years and would be delighted to take you to his favorite spots. He can also provide you with tips for your own excursions.

Jonas is a trained skating guide and has hiked in Sweden, Europe, Asia, and the US. In 2018, he hiked the Pacific Crest Trail, from the US-Mexico border to Canada.
