Berlin is a green and blue city, even if you don't expect that from a metropolis. This is best seen from a SUP-board.

From East to West and back again. This SUP tour through Berlin takes you from the Funkhaus area in the east of the city via Rummelsbucht to Treptower Park, further to the west through Neukölln and back over the river Spree to the starting point.
There is a lot to see steeped in history, industrial culture, the Berlin club scene and a lot of green. The SUP paddling tour leads through the historic Osthafen, where East and West used to meet. It goes past street art and industrial wasteland and alternates with green stretches at the banks of the Spree. During the tour you have a view of the radio tower and the Red City Hall and paddle through the legs of the monumental work of art - Molecule Man. It was created by the American sculptor Jonathan Borofsky.
With 15km in length and about three hours, this tour is not for beginners.
