The University of Bonn has its own boathouse in Beuel with a large selection of rowing boats. The basic requirements for participating in university rowing are good swimming ability and knowledge of the German language .The courses are held in German. If you do not speak German fluently, you unfortunately cannot join the course for safety reasons.Activities at the boathouse are primarily organized independently. Therefore, course participants are expected to help with boat maintenance and minor repairs. Rowing through the University of Bonn’s intercollegiate sports program is divided into two areas: recreational rowing for beginners and advanced rowers, and competitive rowing. The courses take place once a week. Unfortunately, no beginner courses can be offered during the semester breaks!
