Utrecht from the water

 

Tip: Round trip on the canals on a Venetian gondola, striking “plof” boat or (electric) whisper boat

Take a round-trip or set out on an exploratory expedition by pedal boat, rowing boat or canoe. A boat trip across the canal can be particularly romantic in spring when cow parsley is in bloom!

Beautiful scenic area
If you like, you can leave the city behind via the Kromme Rhine, sail into a beautiful scenic area and moor for a drink at Theehuis Rhijnauwen.
