Guided trip on the Aare with canoes or large canoes
On calm waters at the southern foot of the Jura, you glide past the storks at Altreu, past lovely islands and reach the baroque "open-air museum" of Solothurn as your destination.
The start of this canoe tour is in Arch, opposite the Grenchen landing stage. An ideal tour to get to know canoeing or simply to spend a leisurely day. The waves of the passing course boats provide some variety and fun. The guided tour offers magnificent views of the Jura. A special attraction is the stork settlement in Altreu. Here you will also have lunch in the restaurant directly on the Aare. The final stop is at TCS Camping Solothurn, from where you can reach the train station in around 20 minutes on foot.
