This beautiful route is only available on request for groups of more than 20 people (team buildings, schools, ...). Sailing the 8 km takes about 1.5 to 2 hours.
Our most beautiful route for the recreational kayaker. Discover nature and relax on the water. Accessible daily, reservation is required. You sail from Smeermaas (Lanaken) to Kotem (Maasmechelen), through a beautiful piece of unspoiled nature, part of the Maasvallei River Park. While paddling you enjoy the sound of rippling water, the game of water birds, and let yourself float on the rapids: that is complete relaxation. Perhaps you will be joined by some "large grazers" the Galloways or Konik horses on the banks who enjoy a varied fauna. Optional bus transport takes you from the end point in Kotem to the departure point in Smeermaas before your departure. The bus runs at 10:00 AM, 11:00 AM, 12:00 PM and 1:00 PM. The route takes 2 to 3 hours depending on the water level.
We recommend coming to the end point, where you can easily park, and use our shuttle bus to the departure point. Simple as that !
