The Nortik CityRaft was specifically designed for urban paddling and is aimed at paddlers looking for a lightweight, uncomplicated packraft for waterways in and around the city. Unlike many classic packrafts, the CityRaft does not focus on tight manoeuvrability in moving water, but on strong straight-line tracking. This makes it ideal for calm water, city canals and short everyday tours.
Optimised for urban waterways
Many cities offer perfect conditions for spontaneous packraft outings – from Hamburg’s canals and Berlin’s waterways to Amsterdam, Stockholm or Copenhagen. The CityRaft was developed exactly for this purpose: light, mobile and ready to use at a moment’s notice. The integrated tracking fin and the raised, dry seating position ensure a relaxed paddling experience, even over longer straight sections of water.
Stable handling & versatile use
Wherever directional stability matters more than maximum agility, the CityRaft really comes into its own. Whether crossing lakes, gliding leisurely along calm rivers or even fishing, the packraft stays on course and moves efficiently with minimal effort. This makes it an ideal companion for paddlers who value comfort and straightforward handling.
Everyday mobility
Thanks to its low weight and compact pack size, the Nortik CityRaft can easily be integrated into everyday life. It is perfect for anyone who wants to combine sightseeing with a quick paddle or occasionally avoid city traffic by taking the water route. A few paddle strokes during a lunch break, commuting via a canal or a spontaneous after-work outing – the CityRaft makes all of this possible.
Conclusion
The Nortik CityRaft is a minimalist packraft for paddlers who appreciate high mobility and excellent straight-line tracking. It is perfectly suited to urban environments and to situations where a lightweight, instantly ready boat is required. Whether for city exploration, as an alternative to daily traffic or for relaxed outings on lakes and calm rivers, the CityRaft feels at home wherever simplicity and tracking stability take priority.

The Nortik CityRaft comes with a handy carrying bag, making transport especially easy. Using the included pump bag, this ultra-light packraft can be inflated quickly and is ready for use immediately—perfect for spontaneous urban outings.
A lightweight, four-piece paddle is especially suitable for the Nortik CityRaft. It breaks down compactly, is easy to store, and perfectly matches the boat’s mobile character—ideal for short trips through the city or quick outings on flatwater.
With the included pump bag, the Nortik CityRaft can be ready for use in just a few minutes. First, the bag is pulled upward and slowly closed to trap the air inside.
By rolling, pressing, or folding the bag, the air is pushed into the packraft. This process is repeated until the raft reaches the desired firmness. Finally, the pump bag is removed and the valve is securely closed—then the CityRaft is ready to go.
The Nortik CityRaft is designed for one person and is aimed at paddlers who prefer a particularly lightweight and easy-to-use boat. It is ideal for short trips and spontaneous outings where mobility and minimal weight are key.
The Nortik CityRaft is specifically designed for use on calm waters. On flatwater, this ultra-light packraft performs at its best: it remains stable, is easy to maneuver, and is ideal for relaxed short trips and hassle-free everyday outings.
The Nortik CityRaft is made from TPU material, providing high durability for an ultra-light packraft. Despite its light weight of just 2.8 kg, the outer skin is robust enough for regular use on flatwater. The construction is designed to handle everyday wear and tear well, as long as the raft is used properly.
Long-term durability is primarily supported by careful handling: the packraft should be thoroughly dried after use, set up on a clean surface, and protected from abrasion on rough terrain. Minor damage can be easily repaired with appropriate repair materials.
Weighing just 2.8 kg, the Nortik CityRaft is one of the most portable packrafts available. When packed, it fits easily into a backpack and can be carried comfortably on foot, by bicycle, or using public transport.
Measuring 250 × 92 cm when inflated, the raft remains compact, and its small packed size makes it ideal for spontaneous urban outings or trips where minimal gear is desired.
