As part of our series of the BEST FACES on the Danube, we would take you first time on kayak tour at the Weltenburger Enge.
Weltenburger Enge Kayaktrip
If you want to come, call us for an appointment! We will only start the tour after 4 people have applied!
We are now inviting you to a not only spectacular but exciting trip on the section between Neuburg, Ingolstadt and Kelheim, where our national river has cut through the karst, providing us with a spectacular water route. Admire the steep cliffs of the Weltenburger Enge from a kayak.
Why You should come?
I think the photos tell you everything, why not stay home! 🙂
What you will be part of:
- Exciting lockings: we can handle the shiplocks ourselves!
- The view and sound of the clear water Danube meandering between hilly forests and steep rock walls.
- Weltenburger Monastery, the oldest monastery brewery in the world, is also on the way, where you can buy the famous Weltenburger brown beer as a souvenir.
- As long as the others buy souvenirs, we can even swim in the refreshing Danube.
- And in Kelheim you can see the imposing Freedom Hall, from the dome of which you can see the meandering Danube.
