This special rafting adventure takes you over the wild waters of the Erft to the Rhine and ends 10 minutes on foot from Düsseldorf's old town. Perfect for family outings, team events and bachelor parties.
Tour Programme- Preparation:We meet directly at the
"Rheinwiesen am Deich". If you arrive by car, you can park along Volmerswerther Straße. Our meeting point is also easily
accessible by public transport (5 minutes from the U72 stop "Hellriegelstraße"). After you have received your equipment (lifejacket, helmet and paddle) there will be a training before you go to the water.
- Tour:Following the flow of the Rhine, we marvel at the huge inland ships from close up. At a pebble beach in the nature reserve, we take a
well-deserved break before we admire the skyline of Düsseldorf from the Rhine and paddle past the old town to the
