What to expect

Embark on a near-silent journey through a fascinating fusion of nature, waterways, and contemporary history in the city's eastern districts. Sit back, relax, and savour the distinctive perspectives of a side of the city that remains unexplored by many.

The tour commences at the harbour, heading west for a brief distance before gliding under the striking Oberbaum Bridge and past the renowned open-air gallery. The route then veers towards the historic heart of Berlin, the delightful Nikolaiviertel. Just shy of the lock, you'll pivot at the historic harbour and set course back eastwards.

An awe-inspiring view of the Radialsystem awaits as you pass the Oberbaum Bridge once more, entering the Osthafen — a significant shipping hub during the former GDR era. The journey continues towards Treptower Park, a location steeped in history and nature, and a site of one of the most dramatic escapes from East Germany. Further along, you'll reach the traditional Eierhäuschen before gliding past the legendary Berlin broadcasting house. A brief detour into Rummelsburger Bucht for a small loop precedes your relaxed return to the harbour. This unforgettable experience between water, nature, and contemporary history is ideal for Berlin enthusiasts, nature lovers, and those with an insatiable curiosity to explore.
