Paddle tour: Franconian Saale

The Franconian Saale, a particularly varied stretch of water, is located in the Rhön Nature Park and Biosphere Reserve, which is not very popular with tourists, and flows through a charming low mountain range landscape. The route offers paddlers a very good infrastructure with signposted launching points, rest areas and camping meadows. Here you can paddle through unspoiled nature, where kingfishers, dippers, dragonflies and grayling feel at home. Remnants of riparian forests and reed beds, fields of water lilies and flower meadows provide a splendid display of color. In addition, medieval towns, dreamy hamlets, castles and monasteries bear witness to a lively cultural landscape.
