Canoe Tour on the Vils: Nature to Touch between Amberg and Lengenfeld

Experience a guided city tour on the water: Paddle through the picturesque Vilstal from Amberg to Lengenfeld with nature park ranger Christian Rudolf. The tour combines discovery experiences, local history, and ecological education – ideal for anyone wanting to explore the authentic atmosphere of the Upper Palatinate by the river.

Gentle Gliding Through the FFH Protected Area

Between ancient floodplain forests, juniper slopes, and the historic Amberg, the Vils emerges as the lifeblood of the region. The ranger clearly explains how to canoe in an environmentally friendly way, which key species – such as beavers and green dragonflies – are found here, and why the Vilstal is particularly sensitive as a European protected area. Architectural details along the shore, from the medieval cityscape of Amberg to old loading places, make history tangible.

Insider Knowledge First Hand

Christian Rudolf, ranger in the Hirschwald Nature Park and trained forestry expert, imparts in-depth knowledge about cultural heritage, river dynamics, and the former flatboat shipping, which transported iron and salt. Short stops at the shore deepen the cultural enrichment of this tour.
