departure overboelare

[:swvar:ufile:4:description:]

All our kayaks in Overboelare are 2-person boats. Each double boat can accommodate 1 additional child without a paddle (child under 10 years old).

When departing with the canoe from Overboelare (Geraardsbergen), you start from café Het Bruggenhuis (Majoor Van Lierdelaan 50, Geraardsbergen). Note, the café is closed on Monday and Tuesday, making canoe rentals impossible on these days. On all other days, canoes are rented between 11 am and 7 pm.

It is advisable to bring a waterproof bag, sunscreen, a hat, and drinks. From Overboelare, you paddle upstream towards the lock of Deux-Acren (5 km one way, about 2 hours back and forth, see map).

At the start of the rental, participants are required to submit a driving license or ID card as a deposit for the received equipment. In case of loss or damage, you will need to compensate for this equipment (paddle: €25 - life jacket €55). The departure and arrival point is the same, so you paddle the route there and back.

In dangerous conditions (e.g., high water level), the canoe rental may be closed. In this case, there is no right to compensation. You can choose another time to come paddling, or the registration fee will be refunded.
