Tørring Kanoudlejning has new owners! Nynne and Karsten Kristensen have taken over the business from the Mindedahl family and look forward to continuing the proud traditions. With 23 years of experience in canoeing and outdoor experiences, as well as their current operation of Silkeborg Kanocenter & Slusekioskens Kanoudlejning, they’re ready to create fantastic experiences for our guests.
Tørring Kanoudlejning was founded in 1977 by the Mindedahl family, and since 1993 Jan and Anette Mindedahl have developed the company with great passion. Over the years, activities have grown to include package trips, kayak rental, as well as teambuilding and events for both private customers and companies.
For us, it’s all about making it easy and convenient to get out on the water and experience beautiful Danish nature. We tailor activities for any occasion and make sure every detail is in place, so you can enjoy an unforgettable trip.
We look forward to sending you, your families, your friends or colleagues off on a fantastic canoe trip, or challenging you with fun teambuilding activities.
