Safety first
Life jacket: compulsory for everyone - included with a rental with us!
Drybag: For cell phone, snacks and spare clothing - also included.
Sunscreen: Don't forget sunscreen even on cloudy days.
Drinking water: You get dehydrated more quickly on the water.
Comfort for the trip
Sun protection: hat, sunglasses (secure with a strap!), light T-shirt
Snacks & catering: High-energy snacks and a light picnic
Towel and change of clothes: Particularly pleasant after the tour
Swimsuits and water shoes: non-slip shoes make it easier to get in and out of the water
Extra tips for your perfect Aareböötle trip
Waterproof phone case: optional, but practical for photos on the go
