Out and about in the idyllic Ruhr Valley by pedalo
Pedal boating on the Baldeneysee? This is not possible, but a few minutes' walk downstream on the Essen-Werden side, near the Brehminsel and the Werdener Wiesn There is a pedal boat hire service that makes boat trips in the idyllic Ruhr Valley between Werden and Kettwig a real experience. Pedal boating is fun for young and old. For safety reasons, the youngest go on the water with a life jacket.
Let your mind wander
In the middle of the Ruhr region with its more than five million inhabitants, pedal boating on the Ruhr below the Baldeneysee a great way to forget everyday life and unwind. The boat glides gently over the glistening water, lush greenery is everywhere, the leaves move gently in the wind.
Idyllic Ruhr Valley
The Ruhr Valley, nestled in a picturesque landscape, offers an oasis of peace and relaxation. Weeping willows sway gently in the wind on the banks, and the chirping of birds accompanies you on your journey. Ducks and geese leisurely make their rounds. Every now and then, a fish jumps out of the water, leaving behind small ripples that gently spread out.
New perspectives
The pedal boat glides almost silently across the Ruhr. Hidden bays come to light and things that can only be seen from the water. This change in perspective opens up new vistas and awakens the spirit of discovery. On hot days, many people are drawn to the water, where the temperatures are more bearable and even lower. You can stop the pedalo at any time and dip your feet in the cool water for a refreshing dip. The atmosphere is peaceful and relaxed - surrounded by the beauty of nature.
Quality time with family and friends
Pedal boating on the Ruhr below the Baldeneysee between the Werden and Kettwig districts of Essen is not only a wonderful way to enjoy nature, but also an opportunity to spend time with your loved one, friends or family. Quality time away from the hustle and bustle and the challenges of everyday life make for shared experiences. A memory that will always bring a smile to your face and make you dream of next summer on a pedalo on the Ruhr.
