Hiking

When the glaciers of the last ice age retreated northwards, the meltwater flows through the Delvenau meltwater channel drained south into the Elbe. A watershed formed on the terminal moraine chains near Mölln, from which the Delvenau continued to flow southwards and the Stecknitz to the north into the Trave. For 500 years, these two watercourses with a connecting canal as the Stecknitz-Delvenau Canal were mainly used for the transport of salt from Lüneburg to the Baltic Sea region. When the Elbe-Lübeck Canal was built around 1900, the entire Stecknitz became part of it.

From here you have an excellent view of the Elbe-Lübeck Canal. You can watch the ships passing by at their pleasure at work. Of course, this place is also perfect for a picnic in the countryside.
