An abandoned hotel and insurmountable rock massifs in the background, that's what stand-up paddlers glance at around the tourist hotspot of Lake Misurina. At 1800 m above sea level, you certainly are a rare breed when paddling on alpine waters.

Although Lake Landro is quite inconspicuous as a SUP area, it does offer some interesting characteristics. You paddle between steep mountain slopes on an oversized pond with water only chest-high but surprisingly warm.

The climatic health resort of Pörtschach am Wörthersee is popular with paddlers due to the Caribbean colors along its peninsula. The eastern bay also offers sightseeing by the water, as countless old villas line the comfortably navigable shore.

Velden's contrasts are not only evident on land, but also on the water. A SUP tour takes you along busy motorboat routes and into a dreamy exotic bay.

Just a few paddle strokes from Novigrad, Istria's longest river meets the Adriatic Sea in a biodiverse delta, where stand-up paddlers experience a water triumvirate of river, lagoon and sea.

The dreamy fishing village is the ideal starting point for a leisurely paddle tour with a sea crossing. A small harbor, small beaches, but a big chunk of playful colours are the ingredients for a few relaxing hours with a view over the Kvarner Bay.
