  • LEK MER and Eden Take Over Rålis Kajak

    LEK MER and Eden Take Over Rålis Kajak

    Now we can proudly announce that together with Eden Sthlm, we are taking over Rålis Kajak, one of Stockholm’s oldest kayak rentals.

    Rålis Kajak was established back in 2007 and has since been a hub for water-loving Stockholmers, tourists, and eager paddlers.

    LEK MER and Eden are taking over Rålis Kajak’s existing operations and will develop Smedsudden on Kungsholmen into Stockholm’s new oasis for experiences and activities, filling the peninsula with everything needed to escape everyday life for a while.

    With their combined offering, Stockholmers and tourists are offered both a restaurant experience with first-class Mediterranean-inspired cuisine using local ingredients, and central city kayaking in the “Venice of the North” with knowledgeable instructors and equipment of the absolute highest quality.

    – With LEK MER | Eden, we offer Stockholm’s absolute premier starting point for kayaking experiences – here you will find everything you need to explore and discover paddling in the best and safest way.

    Together with Eden, we offer a wider range of social paddling tours for individuals, large groups, and companies, where we top off the trip with fantastic cuisine, an outdoor bar, great vibes, and cultural life in Stockholm’s new oasis, says Emil Gyllenberg, head of LEK MER’s establishment.

    In addition to water activities and the restaurant, a large outdoor bar, event space, music festivals, and other cultural events are offered – all nestled in a bohemian, lush, and waterfront setting. A place to stop by, enjoy, and be inspired.

    – We believe Stockholm wants a place close to nature that encourages both wellness and decadence, offering deep fresh breaths in a wonderful environment, says Jakob Grandin, head of Eden.

    Join us for a paddle, every day all summer long!

    See you there!
