Rhine week
The Rhine Week is a regatta week for inland sailors that has been held since 1922 at Whitsun from the Middle Rhine to the beginning of the flat Lower Rhine. In 2010 the route led from Oberwinter via Mondorf , Cologne-Porz , Leverkusen - Hitdorf , Düsseldorf to Krefeld (125 km).
In 2009 the regatta distance was over 175 km and was the longest river regatta in Europe.
