Prices and opening times
Single kayak, €22 for up to two hours and €3 for each extra hour (€30 for the day). Canoe for two adults and two children or rowing boat for four, €35 for up to two hours and €7 for each extra hour (€51 for the day). Open from April to September Thursday to Sunday from 10:00 to 18:00, last departure at 16:00; in October, until 17:00, last departure at 15:00. On the water, punts have right of way.
