Canoeing

The canoe trip starts from the RICORDO jetty in the middle of the Münsterland parkland. We recommend taking the right-hand route along the Stever, which offers pure enjoyment of nature. After canoeists have passed a footbridge, they reach the widening main course of the Stever after a while. There is a weir on their right, where they can only turn left. After a few more minutes, they see another wooden footbridge ahead of them.

Route

About 60 meters before this bridge, turn left into the arm of the Vischering Stever, a wildly overgrown course that leads to Vischering Castle (approx. 30 minutes). From Vischering Castle, turn left back into the main course of the Stever. You now pass the aforementioned wooden bridge, which is considerably higher than the first bridge. If you keep calm and level-headed, you can observe kingfishers, greylag geese, Canada geese, great white or gray herons and storks.

The landscape is wonderful to enjoy from the boat, with horses and cattle grazing to the right and left. If you like, you can bring a picnic with you.

Kakesbeck Castle

After about an hour, you reach the "Burg Kakesbeck" jetty. There is a weir here which you cannot pass by boat without getting out. Caution: Before the course of the Stever narrows, a stream (the Kleuterbach) flows into the Stever on the left-hand side, which should not be entered. Canoeists should keep to the right here in the direction of Kakesbeck Castle. After the break, take the same route back to the RICORDO landing stage, where you can round off the canoe trip in the Stevergarten with a glass of good wine.

The tour is also ideal for families with children.

A special highlight are the wine tastings on the Stever, which are organized by the RICORDO wine house. For more information, visit www.ricordo.de
