This advanced kayak course at Pampas is built for paddlers who have outgrown the basics and want to move toward independent, longer trips in the middle archipelago. Over an intensive full day you refine balance and stroke work, practice safety and rescue skills, and prepare specifically for the Grönt paddelpass; attendees should already have completed a basic course or equivalent and have some practical practice behind them.

THE SKILLSET

Master safety, balance and technique

The course focuses on consolidating core kayak skills — from balance and efficient strokes to practical safety drills — so you leave with more confident on-water ability.

THE FORMAT

One-day intensive geared to the Grönt paddelpass

This is an intensive, full-day offering designed for paddlers aiming to take the Grönt paddelpass in a concentrated format rather than a multi-evening course.

THE BASE

Pampas: LEK MER’s Solna launch

The day begins and ends at LEK MER Pampas Kajak & SUP, the operator’s meeting point in Solna and the practical base for on-water drills and assessments.

What the day feels like

What a day on the water feels like

A compact progression: gather at the LEK MER Pampas dock for briefing and kit-up, move onto focused on-water sessions that isolate balance and stroke mechanics, run through realistic safety and rescue drills, then finish with paddling scenarios that simulate longer archipelago outings — all designed to build the competence you need to paddle independently.
