Important notes
Take a look at our opening times to plan your departure in the best possible way. To ensure that everything runs smoothly on the water, we have compiled a few safety and behavioural tips for water hikers. Everything fully booked? Then try our other location, Scheibenholz boat hire. The availability of our boats is always up to date on the website.
Why is paddling without alcohol so important? Among other things, rules apply on the water just like in road traffic (the alcohol limits can be checked by the water police) and safety in water sports only works with a clear head. Therefore, for the safety of everyone on the water, "NO ALCOHOL WHEN PADDLING".
