All equipment, from neoprene suits to life jackets and safety helmets, will be provided on-site. After a briefing, you'll practice paddling in the finish pool, and then the whitewater adventure begins. As a team, you'll tackle the rapids and rollers of the canoe park—adrenaline rush included!
Adventurous highlights include:
- DUO rafting
- EASY Rafting
- surfing courses
- professional surfing
- Bodyboarding
- hydrospeed
- whitewater kayak
For those who prefer something a little quieter, the canoe park has a dragon boat, a team canoe and a boat rental shop next door. There is a playground for younger visitors and there is also food and drink available. The KANU whitewater terrace invites you to enjoy a refreshment with a view of Lake Markkleeberg. In addition to recreational sports, the canoe park also hosts exciting events such as the XXL paddling festival and top-class canoe slalom competitions.
