Rügen Circumnavigation

Later this month, TRAK Pilots Magdalene Krüger & Jason Guindon are embarking on a circumnavigation of Rügen, Germany’s largest island. They will be putting their TRAK kayaks to the test over 215km of coastline in 10 days.

Standing tall within the Baltic Sea, directly across from the city of Stralsund, Rügen’s chalk cliffs and ancient historical sites - combined with a laidback rural charm, draw many visitors every year. The stunning coastline is also attractive to sea kayakers as a destination that offers some challenge, and a lot of unforgettable views into the open Baltic.
