The Sieg is a 146 km long low mountain range river that rises in the Rothaargebirge and flows into the Rhine north of Bonn. Due to its extraordinary wealth of rare plants and animals, the Sieg is one of the most beautiful and ecologically valuable rivers in Germany. For this reason, the Sieg floodplain near Windeck-Oppersau up to its mouth into the Rhine was declared a nature reserve in 2005
Important: Please do not camp wildly and only get on or off the canoe or swim where it is permitted.
Glide gently along the Sieg in a canoe and experience the landscape up close: Even beginners with no previous experience can enjoy this. A variety of flora and fauna and beautiful bathing spots await canoeists along the way. You decide the length of the route, start time and whether you need a boat transport service.
Three steps separate landlubbers from their water adventure: check the water level (bottom green button on the left - minimum level 55 cm), choose a suitable provider and finally select a program.
