Kanpur is all set to welcome back one of its most loved leisure destinations as the Kanpur Boat Club reopens on 9 December, bringing with it a fresh wave of water-based adventure activities and recreational experiences.
Located along the scenic Ganga Barrage, the Boat Club’s reopening marks an important moment for the city’s tourism and weekend culture after a prolonged seasonal shutdown.
The Kanpur Boat Club typically remains closed during the monsoon months due to high water levels and safety concerns. With the river now calmer and all safety checks completed, authorities have given the green signal for reopening. Following inspections by district and water sports officials, the Boat Club is fully geared to resume operations with upgraded facilities and enhanced visitor experiences.
Key attractions include:
- Speed boating & motor boating for thrill-seekers
- Jet skiing for high-energy water fun
- Banana rides & fun boat rides for groups
- Pontoon boating for relaxed river cruising
- Parasailing, a major highlight, expected to be introduced for the first time, giving Kanpur a rare adventure-sport experience usually seen in coastal or hill destinations.
These additions are expected to place Kanpur on the map for urban adventure tourism in Uttar Pradesh.
The reopening of the Kanpur Boat Club is expected to give a significant boost to local tourism and surrounding businesses.
If you’re looking for a fresh weekend plan, a touch of adventure, or simply a relaxed riverside break, 9 December marks the perfect time to rediscover Kanpur Boat Club.
