Zernsdorf: SUP rental canceled – all details about the dispute!
In Zernsdorf on the idyllic Krüpelsee, the dream of many water sports lovers to try out Stand Up Paddling (SUP) seems a long way off. As maz-online.de reports, the planned SUP rental in the City council meeting in Königs Wusterhausen rejected. Operator Viktoria Brovkova has already invested a whopping 30,000 euros to set up the modern and fully automated rental station directly on the banks of the Krüpelsee.
The decision came as a surprise after the town hall initially granted approval without involving other committees. Now the SUP rental container has to be dismantled and it remains unclear whether a new location can be found. This development affects not only the operator, but also water sports enthusiasts, who already sensed that the clear Krüpelsee would be an ideal environment for their sport.
SUP rental and enthusiasm for water sports
The SUP rental in Zernsdorf would have offered an attractive opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy the quiet bays of the Krüpelsee. The rental station would have offered both beginners and experienced paddlers a wide selection of SUP boards that could be easily booked online or on site. In general, SUP stations are [widespread] in Germany (https://www.stand-up-paddling.org/sup-leihen/). Among the 32 best SUP rentals in Germany is the “SUP TRIP Potsdam” rental company, which offers a variety of premium boards.
In recent years, stand up paddling has become significantly more popular in this country. Clear water, green banks and the opportunity to enjoy nature when the weather is nice make the lakes an attraction for many. The rental stations help promote this trend and offer good business for their operators.
Also: News from BER and more
While the SUP rental at Krüpelsee is not happening, there are other developments in the region. The Schönefeld municipal council approved the development plan for an entry and exit center at BER, which was decided despite violent protests and a controversial debate. Critics warn of accelerated procedures and a lack of legal protection for refugees, while the center is expected to bundle various tasks related to migration from 2028.
At the same time, there is news about the asphalting work on the L401 in Eichwalde, where the road between Friedenstrasse and the Berlin city limits will remain closed for several weeks. The new playground at the “Villa am See” in Wildau, which is being planned by the Wiwo housing association, is also taking shape. It should be completed by autumn in order to respond to the criticism of the existing outdoor facilities.
In all of these developments, it is to be hoped that the positive impulses for water sports and the municipal administration will not be lacking. Paddling enthusiasts can only hope that new opportunities will soon emerge in the area.
