 Rules, Restrictions and Extra Info
Rules:
- License
- Other


You need a special license from the authorities (LRA Bodensee) to kite here! 200m west of the spot there is a prohibited "Naturschutz" area. If you kite without license and spot knowledge locals might cut your lines as their spot is short before closing due to idiots not following the rules here. 25m is the maximum line length allowed. Watch the boat traffic.
