Start your adventure in Lübeck with a relaxing canoe tour around the historic Altstadtinsel. After a warm welcome at the jetty on Falkenstraße, you will receive a briefing and your gear. Then off you go – at your own pace, you'll paddle clockwise around Lübeck's landmarks on the tranquil Stadttrave.
Along the way, you'll glide past the old salt warehouses that once stored the valuable “white gold” and the imposing Holstentor, the city's most famous landmark. In the museum harbour, you will get up close to historic sailing ships and feel the maritime flair of times gone by.
Those who want can extend the tour with a small loop around the so-called Teufelsinsel. Breaks are also possible – for example, at the picturesque Malerwinkel or at Drehbrückenplatz, where you can watch the hustle and bustle on the banks.
After about 2-3 hours, you will return relaxed to Falkenstraße and return your canoe. The tour is suitable for individual paddlers and groups and offers a new, impressive perspective of Lübeck.
