Weisse Flotte Baldeney
The Weiße Flotte travels between Baldeneysee and Kettwig, passing many highlights along the way.
Weisse Flotte Baldeney – experience the beauty of the Ruhr in Essen
Relax on a cruise through the beautiful Ruhr Valley, enjoy a delicious slice of cake and aromatic coffee, and watch the banks of the Ruhr and Baldeneysee glide by: Weiße Flotte Baldeney operates regular services between Baldeneysee and Kettwig, passing plenty of highlights along the way. Discover Villa Hügel above Baldeneysee, sail beneath Werdener Brücke past romantic Brehminsel and Löwental, where a large open-air event draws young and old to the historic district each year, and let the boat guide you through the lock at Werdener Wehr.
Highlights aboard Weisse Flotte Baldeney
The two-hour lake cruise aboard Weisse Flotte Baldeney passes the well-known motorcycle meeting spot Haus Scheppen, Seaside Beach Club, and the districts of Heisingen and Kupferdreh before returning to Regattaturm. And Weiße Flotte sails even farther: the Five Locks Tour travels from Baldeneysee along the Ruhr to the Rhine-Herne Canal. Weiße Flotte Baldeney welcomes some very special guests for special occasions. In December, for example, St. Nicholas visits the fleet’s boats, and special cruises featuring culinary delights from Ruhrpott cuisine can be booked throughout the year.
