    Lupia ferry in the Lippeauen, behind the Oberwerries castle.
    Here you have to pull yourself over the lip with your own strength.
    The ferry is closed from the end of October to March

          The name "Lupia" arose from a naming competition between Hammer citizens. "Lupia" is the Roman name for the lip. Just like the Romans, the Lupia passengers have to rely on muscle power. There is no ferryman. If you want to cross the river, you can pull the ferry across the Lippe with a chain. The ferry is open daily from 7am to 8pm and is free. When using it, make sure that the chain is operated slowly and evenly. Further instructions and tips for the crossing can be found on information signs on the ferry. From Easter to October, the Lippe ferry crosses the longest river in North Rhine-Westphalia.

            The upper arms are in demand here 😅.

              Great thing. With some effort you can also pull yourself over alone.

                Hand-operated ferry for pedestrians and cyclists. Works with relatively little effort
