We start our canoe trip on the Lippe River in Hörste (Schambrede), below a slalom course, so even inexperienced students won't encounter any major obstacles. Along the way, we'll paddle through some renaturalized sections and then arrive in Lippstadt, where we'll navigate a boat channel on the northern bypass canal, which students usually find very enjoyable. At the end of the northern bypass canal, we'll finish the canoe trip at the "Freibad" parking lot, where your bus company may be able to park. From there, the city center and train station are a 10-minute walk away.
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.
