About the spot

Local kite schools use shallow lagoon areas near Pruchten for weather-dependent tuition. Sheltered water offers freeride potential, while actual shore launches are limited. The venue marker is on the shore rather than at a school office.

Agree the currently usable access with the school before visiting. Conservation boundaries, reeds and swimming areas rule out improvised alternative launches. Low water limits jumps and foils; onshore conditions require a clear return route.
