The Into the City adventure tour starts in Boke with a steep and narrow put-in point, making it a bit challenging for beginners. After the first bend, you'll immediately encounter sills, which appear repeatedly along the route. These are only surpassed by three old weirs, which, depending on the water level and your own abilities, must either be navigated or portaged. From Hörste, you'll paddle a 1.5 km slalom course that will be fun for more experienced paddlers. On the Lippe River, you'll be treated to unobstructed views of the landscape with its varied banks. The passage through Lippstadt, with its narrow northern bypass channel, is particularly enjoyable. After your canoe trip, a visit to the city center is highly recommended. As is the case everywhere on the Lippe, access to the riverbanks is prohibited. However, resting is permitted at the old weirs.
Bad weather There is no such thing as bad clothing. 🙂
We outdoor activity providers are often asked, "...and what if it rains?" The answer is quite simple: We paddle, of course, because rain is a part of nature and perfectly acceptable in summer. Even thunderstorms don't necessarily mean we have to cancel the tour, as experience shows that thunderstorms usually develop in the late afternoon, when our tours are typically over. Lightning and thunder also pass quickly, and often it's enough to simply wait half an hour. Of course, there are times when a tour can't take place, but we don't cancel it three days in advance. Instead, we make the decision on-site, once the weather forecast is reasonably clear.
Outdoor events mean that you have to be prepared for all kinds of weather. And so on. important such as appropriate clothing, is sunscreen. This is often forgotten, yet it is needed much more often than a rain jacket.
