Night Canoeing

Experience this unique experience, canoeing by full moon through Utrecht, this year for the 29th year already!

We offer the opportunity to paddle at night under a full moon, with the setting sun through the beautiful canals and Singels of the city of Utrecht. On the way, of course, we take a break at one of the many Utrecht cafes. The end of the tour is a true climax as you sail under all kinds of dark and low bridges. At the last bridge you should lie completely flat in the canoe, to be able to pass under it. An exciting final challenge.

Frequently asked questions:

 

  • With which canoe? night canoeing is always in 2 person canoes. (So if the website indicates 1 more spot, it is for 1 person, and not 1 canoe).
  • How long are you on the road: the activity takes about 3 hours, from our rental location, until the break, it is 1 hour of paddling, you will have a 30 to 45 minute break downtown. After the break, it is also 1 hour of paddling back again. If you come from far away, it is recommended that you stay overnight in the neighborhood, in case it gets unexpectedly late, and you cannot take public transportation.
  • Clothing: shoes that won't slip off your feet easily, no flip-flops or boots, rain jacket against splashing water, sweater (preferably wool or fleece, as this will keep you warm when wet), warm spare clothes + towel, bag for any wet clothes, a string for your glasses.
  • Valuable items: we have waterproof bags, there is 1 bag available, per canoe, but please leave your valuables, and belongings, that should not get wet at home.
