There are some places on the old harbor basin where two and four-legged friends can cool off.

My guess is that the port dates from the time when large gravel and sand pits were active in this area. Because whole shiploads were then transported through the canal e.g. promoted to Hamburg.
Unfortunately, nothing can be found on the Internet 🙁

Unfortunately, you can no longer cycle to the canal via the campsite, the whole area is fenced off.
Otherwise it was a nice tour, but the wind was very fresh.
