    Sehr schöne Kurztour. Mit dem Faltkajak gut zu befahren. Unter der Brücke direkt am Anfang wo die Hörschel in die Werra mündet ist es etwas flach. Dort aufpassen ;)

    Gefahren am 04.08.2017, 1er-Kajak, Durchfluss am Pegel Meiningen bei ca. 15 Kubik. Einsetzstelle in Meiningen am Flutgraben / alte Brauerei ist auch empfehlenswert. Mit dem 1er sind die Strömungswechsel usw. überhaupt kein Problem. Aufpassen muss man freilich auf Steine und andere Hindernisse im Flussbett - ist aber machbar. An dem ein oder anderen Schwall ist eine Spritzdecke vielleicht nicht schlecht, aber auch nicht zwingend nötig. Die schwierigste Stelle ist ca. 400m hinter der Fußgängerbrücke Schwallungen. Hier ragt von links eine Kiesbank / Insel weit in den Fluss. Hier sollte man möglichst voll auf die Kiesbank zusteuern, da einem die Strömung dann sehr weit nach rechts ans Ufer zu drücken droht. Diesen Tipp erhielt ich am Wehr in Schwallungen vom dortigen Verleiher. Die Info war echt hilfreich und kann ich nur so weitergeben.
