A delightful break from everyday life: head out with your loved ones, take a deep breath and simply have nothing you must do.

Lake Berzdorf

Open water, big skies, wooded shores — your lake experience

Clear water, wooded shores, bright beaches and the wide sky above the lake: from the deck you take in Lake Berzdorf up close — quiet, relaxed and right in the middle of nature. Sometimes in golden evening light, sometimes in the morning mist over the marina.

The classic on board

Coffee & cake — the bestseller with your cruise ☕

Fresh filter coffee and a slice of cake from the counter while the lake glides past — the most popular pairing on board.

Our tip for groups (10+ people): add the coffee-and-cake set (filter coffee + cake, €7.50 pp) right when you buy your ticket. Then it's ready and waiting the moment you step aboard — no time lost, straight to enjoying.
