This canoe tour is only suitable for experienced paddlers. Depending on the water level, challenging conditions should be expected. Overnight camping at the canoe club in Mantinghausen is recommended for this tour. You must register there yourself before the tour.
Included in the rental is canoe instruction, boat equipment with paddles, life jackets, and dry bags. You will need to bring your own tent and sleeping bags. We recommend leaving your equipment in Mantinghausen before your canoe trip. This way, you won't have to carry everything in the boats, and your belongings won't get wet if you capsize.
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.
