Lite Venture main location in Eschbach

The Lite Venture headquarters in south-west Germany near the A5 motorway offers the entire range for testing and purchasing on site. The central warehouse with all kayaks and boards in stock is located here. Anyone who comes here can test them on the nearby Rhine at a moderate flow speed or on a lake and then take what they want straight away.

The entire Lite Venture range can be tested and purchased here: All models of lightweight touring kayaks, sea kayaks and surf skis from Stellar, DesignKayaks, the sea kayaks that are still made in Finland by SKIM and the Lite Venture Stand Up Paddle Boards for touring (hardboards and inflatable boards). A wide range of accessories such as paddles, life jackets, dry suits, neoprene shoes and roof racks from Thule can be purchased on site.

The location near Freiburg, the Black Forest and the Kaiserstuhl/Markgräfler Land wine-growing regions also makes it an ideal place to turn a visit into an extended weekend. The area offers campsites and various accommodation options for every budget.

The SKIM sea kayak fleet is available for testing here, and there are always a few kayaks available immediately.

The manufacturer Stellar has its roots in competitive sports and transfers its decades of lightweight construction expertise to recreational kayaks. The result is an exceptionally well-made touring kayak that weighs only 12 to 19 kilos. This makes them ideal for a single person who wants to effortlessly carry and move the kayak alone. The price-performance ratio is also very good.

All kayak and surfski models are available for testing.
All models immediately available in our main location are listed here:

We make Stand Up Paddle Boards with high standards of technology and performance: The hardboards with real wood decks also have a carbon layup, which makes them very stiff. The inflatable boards like the ULTRA, ULTRA Light 12'2" and the ULTRA Fast 14'0" are also known for their rigidity and high-quality materials. All models can be tested here by arrangement. There is also an offer for renting inflatable stand-up paddleboards.

More information about the models:

Finnish manufacturer SKIM designs special sea kayaks: each boat is handcrafted in Finland. The design is based on classic boat shapes and improved. Many details show that their designers are themselves on the water and know what is important. Legendary is the "negative stern" on the SKIM Beaufort, which lengthens the waterline of the boat without making the boat too long.

All available models are available for testing.

An appointment should be made for testing. It is best to call the telephone number below, describe what it is about and make an appointment. Anyone who decides on a kayak or SUP can either buy it on site and take it with them or have it sent to their home.

Iffi, our friendly shop assistant is also happy to help with testing :-)
