Even though Lake V\u00e4nern is large, V\u00e5l\u00f6sundet and Hj\u00e4lmarsfjorden offer sheltered waters. Before heading out paddling, it is important to check the wind direction and adapt your paddling to the conditions as well as your skills. Two kilometers north of the Picasso sculpture is Kapurja, which serves as a launch site and a sea rescue station. From here, several paddling routes begin, which you can see on the paddling map below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-atheme-component-action-button atheme-wrapper--action-button-single\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitvarmland.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2026\/04\/Kristinehamn_Paddel-karta_2026.pdf\" target=\"_self\" class=\"a-action a-action--arrow\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>Map with suggested kayak tours<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-atheme-component-collage-2 atheme-collage\"><div class=\"atheme-collage--double\"><div class=\"atheme-collage--image\" style=\"background-image:url( https:\/\/www.visitvarmland.com\/kristinehamn\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2024\/02\/christina_skan_2.jpg )\"><div id=\"IaFNtXYjPrKmcZZN\" class=\"atheme-collage--infobox\"><p><\/p><\/div><div class=\"atheme-collage--action\"><div class=\"atheme-collage--action-btn\"><i class=\"fal fa-ellipsis-h\"><\/i><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"atheme-collage--image\" style=\"background-image:url( https:\/\/www.visitvarmland.com\/kristinehamn\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2024\/02\/christina_skan_9.jpg )\"><div id=\"OIFUmPFySUlKIGbC\" class=\"atheme-collage--infobox\"><p><\/p><\/div><div class=\"atheme-collage--action\"><div class=\"atheme-collage--action-btn\"><i class=\"fal fa-ellipsis-h\"><\/i><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n    <div class=\"cards-section-top\">\n                <h2>Rental<\/h2>\n        <a class=\"a-button\" href=\"\/aktiviteter\">Visa alla<\/a>\n    <\/div>\n    <section class=\"cards-section-wrapper\">\n        <div class=\"cards-section-slide\">\n            <!-- Card wrapper -->\n<article class=\"a-card a-card--turid\" link-finder     >\n                <div class=\"a-card__image a-card--turid__image\">\n                <div class=\"bg-img\" style=\"background-image:url(https:\/\/img.turid.visitvarmland.com\/68d968f8-a8c1-47ae-abdd-7c02e7545629\/christina-skan-2.jpg?q=80&#038;fit=crop&#038;w=300&#038;h=210&#038;v=1&#038;);\"><\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                        <h2 class=\"a-card__title a-card--turid__title\"><a data-no-translation href=\"https:\/\/www.visitvarmland.com\/kristinehamn\/aktiviteter\/paddla\/kayakomat-kristinehamn-2\">Kayakomat, Kristinehamn<\/a><\/h2>\n                        <div class=\"a-card__content a-card--turid__content\">Att paddla kajak eller sup med v\u00e4nner, familj&hellip;<\/div>\n                        <div class=\"a-card__bottom-wrapper a-card--turid__bottom-wrapper\" style=\"background-image:url();\">                            <div class=\"a-card__favorite a-card--turid__favorite\"><i class=\"fal fa-heart\"><\/i><\/div>\n                        <div class=\"a-card__tag a-card--turid__tag\"><!-- Button wrapper -->\n\n<a class=\"a-tag a-tag--small\" href=\"https:\/\/www.visitvarmland.com\/aktiviteter\/barn-familj\" target=\"_self\" >\n    <span class='a-card--divider'>Barn &#038;
