JSMC/Microverse boat trip

All JSMC/Microverse members and friends are invited to join us for a fun JSMC/Microverse summer boat trip on Saturday, July 29th!

We plan to go on a short trip from Jena to Porstendorf with Kayaks (either 1 or 2 persons per boat). The tour is described as "easy/relaxed", covers 9 km and will take about 2 - 3 hrs. You do not need to have prior knowledge regarding paddling or be super sporty, just bring appropriate clothes, sunscreen/sun protection, a change of clothes/towel, drinks and snacks. We will not be in a hurry and have time to wait for everyone!

There will be an instruction in safety and behavioural rules, boat handling and paddling techniques. Additionally to boats, paddles and life jackets, they will provide us with route informations and tips on weirs/locks.

Important: This time you can only join, if you registered with us beforehand! Please find more detailed information below.
