Explore Norway in Miniature

Telemark is known as “Norway in miniature” – and there’s no better way to discover it than from the water, in true Norwegian style.
Cruise along the historic Telemark Canal with its spectacular locks and lakes, explore the wild coastline around Kragerø, or take a dip in the quiet bays near Langesund.
We provide detailed route suggestions and local tips so you can make the most of your journey – whether you want to relax or explore.
Check out our route recommendations!

Sustainable and Effortless Boating

With a 100% electric engine, our yachts offer quiet propulsion and a range that lets you cruise without worrying about the battery.
You’ll have full control of your energy consumption on board – and plenty of charging points along the route.
Charging is possible in every marina with access to electricity (overnight charging). 
There’s a network of fast chargers along the Telemark Canal that allows you to charge 80% of the battery capacity in 3 hours. You’ll also find charging stations along the coastline.
Examples of range in headwind:
●    4.9 knots: 57.6 nm
●    5.6 knots: 43.9 nm
●    6.2 knots: 33.5 nm
●    7.5 knots: 20.9 nm
