Do I need experience to paddle your canoes or kayaks?

Our canoes and kayaks are stable and suitable for both beginners and experienced paddlers. With our high-quality equipment and clear instructions, you can start your adventure even without prior experience.

Easy entry for beginners
  • Stable boats: Both our kayaks and canoes are designed to provide a safe and enjoyable paddling experience, even for beginners.
  • Reliable equipment: Paddles, life jackets, and other gear are easy to handle and support you optimally.
  • On-site instruction: Before you head out, we provide a comprehensive introduction. We’ll show you how to use the equipment properly, safely enter and exit the boat, and navigate with ease.
Safety guidelines and routines
  • Paddle safely: We provide tips on navigation, weather monitoring, and how to handle unexpected situations such as strong winds or thunderstorms.
  • Safety over comfort: Even for short trips, we recommend always wearing the life jacket we provide.
  • Weather conditions: For spring or autumn tours, we recommend basic paddling experience to handle unpredictable weather and colder water temperatures.

Tip: If you plan a longer tour or feel unsure, you can ask us questions about routes, locks, and boat handling during the on-site briefing. Our explainer videos about the different boats are available here to give you an overview beforehand.
