Sorø lake Stand Up Paddle boarding aka SUPing

Well, I can tell you that SUPing definitely looks easier than it is. I'm totally not cut out for it, that's for sure!

For our 2nd mission on the Denmark Challenge Carina and I had to explore Sorø lake on a Stand Up Paddle board. Carina turned out to be an absolute natural at it while yours truly had quite some difficulties to stay upright on the paddle board.

Big thanks to the people of 'Parnas Natur and Activitypark' who handed us the boards and a lesson.

Watch the video below ;-)

Stand Up Paddling aka #SUP... There wasn't much standing going on though. I spent most of my time on my knees. Damn it's hard! 😂 #DenmarkChallenge with #Visitdenmarkstories #Visitdenmark #DestinationChallenges in #SjællandsVestkyst #RelaxingZealand #Sorø #Parnas

Carina (@travelrunplay) was absolutely rocking it. Her very first time SUPping and she completely nailed it. Queen of the board! 👊 #DenmarkChallenge with #Visitdenmarkstories #Visitdenmark #DestinationChallenges in #Sorø #SjællandsVestkyst #RelaxingZealand

Eventually I managed to stand but I came down already a little bit after. Will definitely need to practice more! 😁 #DenmarkChallenge with #Visitdenmarkstories #visitdenmark #DestinationChallenges in #SjællandsVestkyst #RelaxingZealand

Interested in visiting Sorø as well? Below some practical info from our trip ;-)

Where to stay?
We stayed at Hotel Postgaarden which was one of the oldest hotels in town and situated right in the center. 

How to get there?
We traveled around in a cute rental car. Best way to see Zealand if you ask me :-)
