Slalom channel Nivsky

Add to the journey

Rating: 5.0

Murmansk region, the urban settlement of Kandalaksha


The world's first slalom channel beyond the Arctic Circle.


With idle discharges, one of the best slalom channels in Russia operates in the old bed of the Niva River. This sports facility hosts trainings and competitions in rowing slalom, kayaking and sports tourism. One of the brightest events of the Murmansk region - the Atomic Regatta - is organized in this place.


The forest along the riverbank is great for camping 


The channel is quite complex and interesting for confident kayakers.


For novice kayakers, access to the water is possible strictly accompanied and insured by more experienced comrades. Rafting on the threshold without proper preparation is fraught with a risk to life!
