Description
Travel along the harbor mole (watch out for boats entering and leaving). Afterwards, a swimming zone (no-paddling zone) follows. Therefore, paddle outside the yellow buoys.
1.0 km: Continue paddling along the shore. Be cautious of passenger ships at the Ennetbürgen ship station.
from 3.0 km: There are various rest stops (gravel beaches) in the forest, some with fire pits but without toilets.
4.5 km: At the end of the Bürgenstock (Nas) there is a gravel beach with a ship mooring, grilling facilities, and a shelter with table and bench.
The subsequent lake crossing should only be attempted under good weather conditions, meaning little wind and waves. Observe ship traffic.
5.0 km: After the lake crossing, the journey continues towards Vitznau.
6.5 km: At the entrance to Vitznau is a public bathing place with a gravel beach and toilet facilities. An ideal spot for a short break. However, the community warns of rockfall hazards.
7.0 km: Continue paddling along the shore. Beware of passenger ships at the Vitznau ship station.
Immediately after the ship station, there is another landing and resting opportunity. There is also a toilet facility at the ship station.
8.5 km / 10.0 km: Between Vitznau and Weggis, there are two good rest options (public bathing places with toilets): at Brougier Park and at Lützelau.
11.5 km: The exit is located in front of the ship station at the small boat landing with a jetty.
