If you like it active and sporty, follow the blue signposted fitness trail with the SUP board on 15 stations with exercises for coordination, stability and strengthening - at each station a new fitness impulse surprises from "burpees" to "crunches" from "push-ups" to "skater step" from "eagle" to "down-looking dog".

Directions
The fitness trail leads from Stade Beach at the SUP Club on the Burggraben around the old town of Stade and from there into the idyllic Schwingetal valley.
Once you have left the city limits behind you, green expanses and gentle river bends await. A particular visual highlight is the Fred Watzlawik Bridge in bright white, which is typical of the region. The unique paddle trail task signs with tricky fitness exercises on the SUP board are attached at various points on the tour.

Author´s Tip / Recommendation of the author
Die Schwinge darf erst ab einer minimalen Wassertiefe von 130 cm/NN an der Mess-stelle mit dem SUP-Board oder dem Kanu/Kajak befahren werden. Dieser Wert ent-spricht ungefähr der erforderlichen Mindest-Wassertiefe von 40 cm an den niedrigsten Einstiegsstellen. Es ist daher wichtig, den Wasserstand vor Antritt der Paddeltour zu überprüfen. Befindet sich der Wasserstand im „grünen“ Bereich, steht dem Wassers-paß nichts mehr im Weg. Link Pegelstand
