The Werra, a river with a soul, moves the mind, delights the senses and more - it wants to be discovered by you. 270 km of river landscape with castles, palaces, romantic villages and towns, quiet reed areas, fascinating mountain ridges and rugged rock faces are waiting for you. But also take the time to get to know the beautiful towns and villages with their historic city centers and beautiful half-timbered houses.
The Werra offers active paddlers everything they need for pleasant, uncomplicated water hiking: in many places canoes and rowing boats are available for hire. Corresponding protective equipment for large and small captains is of course included. Every Werraort has a landing stage where you can take a break, stretch your legs and look.
Those who prefer to be driven will get their money's worth with an organized raft trip or in a rubber dinghy. In a happy lap it gradually goes down the river. Perhaps with the raft from Lauchröden over about six kilometers to Neuenhof on the Werra Meander (popularly known as the "Kuchenschieber")? Or: the castle trip by canoe from Lauchröden (Brandenburg ruins) via Neuenhof (castle park) and Creuzburg (castle and Liborius chapel) to Mihla (gray castle). A special experience is certainly the rafting, which has a long tradition on the Werra, possible from Wernshausen and Vacha.
