Lübeck's old town by canoe: explore and circumnavigate on your own

Start your adventure in Lübeck with a relaxed canoe tour around the historic old town island. After a warm welcome at the jetty in Falkenstraße, you will receive a short briefing and your equipment. Then off you go - paddling clockwise around Lübeck's landmarks at your own pace on the tranquil Stadttrave.

Along the way, you will glide past the old salt warehouses, which once stored the valuable "white gold", and the imposing Holsten Gate, the city's most famous landmark. In the museum harbor, you can get up close to historic sailing ships and feel the maritime flair of times gone by.

If you wish, you can extend the tour with a short loop around the so-called Devil's Island. 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 around 2-3 hours, you can return to Falkenstraße and hand in your canoe. The tour is suitable for individual paddlers and groups and offers a new, impressive perspective on Lübeck.
