The river hosts several places renting out a variety of boats.
In the area known as the Sunken City, you’ll find Booteria, which hosts a flotilla of pedal boats for those looking to train their calves and electric boats for those who are more about the floating and drinking part of the activity.
Meanwhile, close to the Kagraner bridge (close to the Alte Donau U-Bahn station) there are around four boat rentals places located very close to each other.
There’s Eppel, for example, which also hosts a bar, so you grab a few drinks to take on the boat with you.
If you’re not a lazy piece of meat like we are who would always go the electric boat that you can hire here, you can rent a rowboat. Most of the places also rent ye’ ol’ favourite pedal boats, because one should never skip leg day.
One insider tip, though: the electric boats don’t have a ladder to get back into the boat after taking a dip, so if you’re not into being pulled back into the boat like a damn slippery sea lion, we advise you to take one of the cute looking pedal boats that sport a slide that you can slip down right into the water.
