Cities right by the water
Be it on the seashores or in the midst of lush lake landscapes; be it on the Kiel Canal, along winding canals or clear rivers: Schleswig-Holstein holiday happiness is reflected in the water’s surface in the most beautiful colours, no matter the season.
Because every season has its charm in the far north. In addition to the picturesque landscapes, the many pretty towns, whose charm and character are inextricably linked to the element of water, also contribute to this. In spring, the towns really blossom. In the bathing season, the north pampers its guests with a fresh summer breeze. Autumn blows up the sails and gives life on land a new tailwind. And in winter, Kluntje clinks in the tea glass while our eyes wander over the promenades and the water.
Easter to October
In Friedrichstadt, you can paddle through the picturesque canals on your SUP from Easter to October. Past the beautiful gardens along the banks, you will get to know the Little Amsterdam of the North from a surprisingly new perspective. Dare to venture a little further out and explore the surrounding rivers Eider and Treene with your board.
