THE BIG PADDLE FESTIVAL 2026
THE BIG PADDLE FESTIVAL 2026
Zürich will bring the circuit to an urban and natural setting of great international prestige. The city is located by Lake Zürich and its rivers, in an environment closely linked to water sports and stand up paddle, which has become a very popular activity there. The lake, surrounded by hills, piers, and leisure areas, offers a highly attractive combination of sport, landscape, and city, making this venue one of the most unique stops on the European tour.
