Rent a canoe at Køge Å
Experience our old town from the waterside! Venture on an idyllic canoe trip down the stream that runs through the town center.
Welcome to VisitKøge's self-service canoe rental
Sailing on Køge Å is a must when visiting Køge, and a great activity for both adults and children. You can rent a canoe from the backyard of VisitKøge's office, and experience Køge from the waterside.
Go to the harbour, or past the nearby manor, Gl. Kjøgegaard, in 1 hour and 45 minutes, while sailing in beautiful surroundings.
Price: DKK 200 per canoe.
Duration: 1 hour and 45 minutes.
Distance: You can sail 2 km to Gl. Kjøgegaard and 0.5 km to the harbour, a total of 5 km.
Equipment: We provide life jackets and paddles - follow the arrows to the sheds in the garden. The life jackets range from 10 kg upwards. You are welcome to bring your own food and drinks on the boat, and you do not need any special shoes or practical clothing - for your own sake, please bring a sun hat and wear sunscreen. After your trip, we kindly ask you to show consideration for the next guests by returning the equipment and canoes in the same condition that you would like to receive them.
Storage of belongings: As the garden is a public area, we recommend that you bring all your belongings with you on the canoe.
Participants: There must be at least two of you sailing the canoe and one must be an adult! One canoe holds a maximum of three adults, or two adults and two children.
