Paddling near Eindhoven, North Brabant

Eindhoven sits in the heart of North Brabant, threaded by the Dommel river and connected to a network of canals including the Beatrixkanaal and Eindhovensch Kanaal. Flatwater paddling is the norm here — canoes and SUP boards are the craft of choice, with the Dommel forming the backbone of most local routes through parks, historic mill sites, and the city's green corridors.
