Exploration tour for a New Tour, which I am currently riding, I came across the highlight. If you don't know where the path leads, you'll miss it.

The lock gate of the Aller Canal in the western Barnbruch is a fascinating piece of hydraulic engineering history in one of Lower Saxony's most ecologically valuable regions. The Barnbruch itself is an extensive lowland moor and wetland area between Gifhorn and Wolfsburg, which has been significantly shaped by the canal system.

The weirs on the Allerkanal are not for shipping, but primarily for water regulation.

The climbing tower at Tankumsee is one of the most striking landmarks of the leisure complex and provides a vertical change to the otherwise rather flat Gifhorn region. It is located on the north shore, in direct proximity to the main beach and not far from the Strandgut Café & Grill.

Das Strandgut Café & Grill is one of the central culinary hotspots at the Tankumsee and is located almost directly on the north shore, not far from the large bathing beach. It is the perfect addition to your previous destinations in the Isenbüttel and Calberlah region.

The Tankumsee near Isenbüttel (Gifhorn district) is essentially the "big sibling" of the Bernsteinsee in Stüde. With approximately 62 hectares of water surface, it is significantly larger and one of the most well-known local recreation destinations in the entire region between Wolfsburg, Gifhorn and Braunschweig. The Tankumsee is famous for its approximately 1,000-meter-long, fine sandy beach. This creates a real vacation feeling in the summer.

The cemetery chapel in Tappenbeck (Samtgemeinde Boldecker Land) is a rather simple, but very central place of peace and farewell for village life. It is located on the northern outskirts of Tappenbeck, directly on the road "Am Felde". A few years ago (around 2017/2018) the chapel was extensively renovated and modernized. Particular attention was paid to a brighter, friendlier design of the interior and improved acoustics in order to offer the bereaved a dignified setting.
