Canoe tour on the rivers of Leda and Jümme, total length 14.2 km, approx. 3 hours. tidal dependent

It is not often possible to paddle uprivers. Here it is. In the rivers of Leda und Jümme the tidal currents are still very recognizable. The flood current carries you from the pier of the Paddel & Pedalstation off to its sister station in Stickhausen. Though the "tailwind" the tour will take about 3 hours.

Author’s recommendation

The Pünte (Europe's oldest hand-drawn ferry) can be admired along the way. Before the tour you can take a stroll in Evenburgpark.
