Overview
Kanotklubben Strömstararna is Stockholm's whitewater kayaking club, founded in 1979. Members paddle the Strömmen rapids in the city centre when the sluice gate is open and travel to rivers around the country. The club runs beginner and rolling courses, and trains in the 50 m pool at Eriksdalsbadet in winter.
