A real argument for entering the world of rowing: rowing is one of the healthiest sports in the world. A full-body workout that is really fun with the right technique. Alone or in a group.

And on top of that, this sport is a wonderful way to enjoy the Upper Austrian landscape.
How easy it looks for rowing pros when they row in unison and glide across the water at a hell of a pace. They glide along smoothly - although this sport also requires strength and endurance. This is a full-body workout on Upper Austria's lakes and rivers.
Before euphorically plunging into the water, however, you should have a qualified trainer explain the rowing movements to you. The Gmunden rowing club offers a weekly training session for undiscovered talents, an intensive course for advanced rowers and youth-orientated sessions for boys and girls. The rowing clubs in the greater Linz area also offer practice trips and training sessions.
