Jena – Bad K\u00f6sen<\/h2>\n

This tour begins in the vibrant city of Jena at the \u201cGries-Bridge\u201d and goes in the direction of Porstendorf.\u00a0 It\u2019s well worth your time to discover Jena\u2019s lovely City Centre, Botanical Gardens, Paradies-Park, and more before you start with your tour.<\/p>\n

Throughout the tour you will experience 5 or 6 \u201cPass-around Points\u201d for which you will have to exit the river with your canoe, and re-enter a short distance down stream.<\/p>\n

As you make your way down the Saale River and surrounding forests, you may catch a glimpse of several native animals; the turquoise river kingfisher, various types of heron, cormorants and\/or nutrias all in their natural habitat. If you are lucky, you may even see turtles and European Otters!<\/p>\n

Before you reach Porstendorf the river splits into two branches. You can choose between the shorter, more vigorous branch, and a longer, more scenic way. The short tour passes a camping site and beer garden at Porstendorf, and the longer tour goes along the old river branch of the Saale making its way passed the Rabeninsel or \u201cRaven\u2019s Island\u201d.<\/p>\n

Nearing Dornburg you can see to your left the Dornburger Palaces: the Renaissance Castle, the Rococo Castle and the Old Castle, where Johann Wolfgang Goethe used to vacation.<\/p>\n

Throughout the tour you will paddle by small islands, and experience small rapids, which keep the tour adventurous.\u00a0 From Dornburg to Camburg the Saale continues to wind through the Saale River Valley along impressive cliffs and teaming forests.<\/p>\n

In Kaatschen you will begin to notice the first of many vineyards, as you are entering Germany\u2019s Northern-most wine growing region.<\/p>\n

At this part of the trip you will pass some small islands in the river. You will also pass two ruins, which are located high above the river on your right side\u2013 the Medieval Rudelsburg and Saaleck Forts<\/p>\n

It was during his stay at the Rudelsburg in 1826, that poet and historian, Franz Kugler, was inspired to write the song \u201cAn der Saale Hellem Strande\u201d.<\/p>\n

If you like, you can take a small rest in the quaint therapeutic city of Bad K\u00f6sen. Here you can breathe the rejuvenating salty sea air produced from the \u201cGradierwerk\u201d twig towers, or literally translated, \u201cGraduation Towers\u201d. The steam from the towers passes through the twigs, and it is said that the salty air helps to improve the health and wellbeing of its visitors.<\/p>\n
