The UNI:Sport water sports pass is your ticket to the University of Kassel’s paddling and rowing area on the Fulda River. Inaugurated in the summer of 2016, the university’s own boathouse at Auedamm 27a in Kassel features a large fleet of rowing boats and kayaks. This fleet is freely available to water sports pass holders with basic knowledge of the respective water sport during opening hours .

Boathouse Hours

In the summer, on weekdays4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
In winterBy arrangement with the course instructors

We offer a wide range of courses to help you get started in rowing, paddling, or stand-up paddleboarding. In addition to beginner courses, advanced water sports enthusiasts will also find a “comprehensive package” that includes “competition, regatta, and racing.”

The monthly water sports pass, which includes UNI:Sport membership, costs just €16.50 per month for university affiliates and Friends of the University members, and €24.00 for guests of the University of Kassel (including basic UNI:Sport membership). After a minimum term of one month, the validity of the water sports pass is automatically extended for another month.

The annual water sports pass has a minimum term of 12 months. It costs €12.50 per month for university affiliates and Friends of the University members (also including basic membership in UNI:Sport). Guests can purchase the annual water sports pass for €20.00 per month. After the minimum term of 12 months expires, the validity of the water sports pass is extended by one additional month at a time.

The following applies to all water sports activities:

  • You must always follow the instructions of the instructors
  • You must be able to swim in open water at all times
  • The rule of keeping to the right applies on the water

Please note that weather conditions may lead to restrictions on course operations during the winter months. In such cases, we will, of course, try to offer alternative—but still water sports-specific—activities for water sports pass holders.

Have fun on, in, and around the water!
