Bovenau is known for its picturesque half-timbered houses, which reflect typical northern German architecture. The town is also an important port of call for water sports enthusiasts, as it is located on the Kiel Canal - a waterway that crosses Germany from east to west.

For cultural highlights, you should visit Emkendorf Castle, an impressive 18th-century Baroque palace with beautifully landscaped gardens. The Museum of the Rendsburg-Eckernförde District is also worth a visit - here you can learn more about the history of the region.

When it comes to culinary delights, don't miss the famous fish market in Eckernförde! Here you will find fresh fish as well as other local specialities such as labskaus or green coal stew.

Outdoor enthusiasts will be thrilled by the numerous possibilities: whether hiking along the Eider promenade or canoeing on the river itself - there are many options for exploring this beautiful area. In winter, skiers and snowboarders can test their skills on the slopes of the nearby Hohenbalken.

Even when the weather is bad, there is plenty to do: Visit the adventure pool in Eckernförde or take a trip to the nearby cinema.

No matter what time of year, Bovenau is always worth a visit. Don't miss the chance to discover this idyllic community and experience unforgettable moments!

    Die als "Männertour" geplante Ausfahrt war für alle Teilnehmer sehr gut zu bewältigen. Die ca. 50 km führten am Kanal entlang. Teilweise gab es Abstecher ins Landesinnere, welche die Fahrt noch abwechslungsreicher machten. Alle Wege sind sehr gut befahrbar. Optisch reizvoll sind natürlich die Schiffe auf dem NOK und die Gastronomie ca. alle 5-10 km macht die Tour kurzweilig. Tom, die Tour war spitzenmäßig geplant, deine Nachbarn.
