WHAT IS PACKRAFTING?
Packrafting is a relatively new sport. A hybrid between backpacking and rafting that allows you to experience unspoilt nature at its finest. A packraft is a light weight inflatable boat that fits into a backpack. Perfect for crossing lakes, rivers and streams as part of a longer route on foot or bike. Whenever your hiking trail gets interrupted by water, simply fill the packraft with air and continue the adventure by packraft.
THE 2-DAY PACKRAFT ADVENTURE
Discover the beautiful green hills and clear lakes of Eifel National Park in its purest form on foot and by raft during the 2-day packraft trail. You follow the trail completely independently, in peace and quiet, so you recharge completely. That is the premise of our packraft adventures!
We provide you with the most beautiful routes and a complete packraft equipment, so you can enjoy a relaxing adventure.
Want to see just a little more of the Eifel? Choose when booking a combination of packrafting and bikerafting. Then you can even spend one day exploring the Eifel by bike and raft during a bikeraft trail!

Absolutely. You are provided with clear instructions on the route and your gear by one of our rangers and you decide yourself how many breaks you take.
When you get down by the water you easily inflate the packraft with the special inflation bag. You scoop air into the inflation bag, similar to a fat boy air chair, and press the air into the raft. It should take you around 5 to 6 full inflation bags to fully inflate your packraft. After paddling through gorgeous scenery, you get back on land, deflate the packraft, roll it up and put it back in your backpack.
No. What makes our concept so much fun is that you will set out independently with all the equipment you need for a unique adventure.
Follow the trail alone, with your partner, friend(s), colleagues or other companionship.
