Although the canals are mainly traversed by motorized freight ships and yachts, on the Leine and Ihme rivers, one can see kayakers, rowers, and paddlers moving about. Along the Leine, there is a shipyard used by rowing clubs, as well as a sports pier housing a kayak club and a waterski club. 伊姆河畔則設有 DRC碼頭。不過,如今在運河上也能划獨木舟了,例如米特蘭運河和萊茵connections 運河沿岸都設有停靠點。
