Yacht-Club Leverkusen Hitdorf e.V. (YCLH)

Yacht-Club Leverkusen-Hitdorf (YCLH) is a club marina at Rhine-km 705.8/707 in Leverkusen-Hitdorf, sheltered by a breakwater and free of wash from commercial shipping. The club has around 60 berths for boats up to 12 metres, and visiting yachtsmen are always welcome.

The entrance is downstream on the right after the breakwater at Rhine-km 707 – always follow the marked channel, especially in high water, as the breakwater can be flooded. Guest berths cost €1.50 per metre/night (€1.00 from the 5th week with prepayment), and there is a slipway for €15 per use plus a rail slip for €120/day by arrangement with the harbourmaster. Note that facilities close during high water levels (Cologne gauge).

The marina offers toilets in the clubhouse (code access), shore power (€3–5/night depending on boat size), free wifi, a large lit and fenced car park, and free loan bicycles to explore the surroundings.

It's only about 150 m to good shops such as Edeka, Aldi, a pharmacy and hairdresser, and the old town with cafés and restaurants is just a 3-minute walk away – including the restaurant "Alte Brauerei" and pizzeria "Gusto". A BFT fuel station is nearby, with another about 1.6 km away. Berth here in this quiet club marina and stroll the short distance into the old town for a good meal.
