Urban escape canoe tours

With Urban Escape, you can visit Mechelen from a different perspective. Explore the city centre on a vintage photo tour from a kick bike. But you can also sail with a Canadian canoe on the Binnendijle, paddle-board on the Leuven-Dyle canal or rent a boat at the idyllic Zennegat, within cycling distance of Mechelen. 


Canoe trip on the Dyle

In a Canadian canoe, you can sail down the Binnendijle in the city centre, together with your friends or family. With 2 or 3 in a boat, this is the ideal opportunity to explore Mechelen from the water.
