Hiking and kayaking tours since 2008

All our trips and courses have been ranked according to the level of experience and fitness required. Our clientele ranges from casual nature lovers to outdoor enthusiasts, who are used to living rough and have plenty of hiking and kayaking experience.

• Private tours, trips reserved by a group, such as a family or friends, who also participate in its planning.
• Group tours, trips organized by Moln on which you can book a place.
• Wilderness tours for companies, trips with a strong focus on nature.

Moln offers small-scale leave no trace tourism to wilderness areas.

Best wishes,

What Moln stands for

• Safe customers are satisfied customers. The safety of my customers is always my foremost priority. Excitement and foolhardiness are two entirely different matters.
• Be considerate towards nature. There are evermore of us that head off into the unspoiled wilderness, which in turn means that all of us have a stake in preserving nature. This means that we take our litter with us and minimise the impact of our presence on the mountains. We behave appropriately, in other words.
• Always seek out harmony. This follows from the first two principles. The experience of the tour becomes more powerful and memorable if we can tap into this inner harmony.
