Lewitz Lock and Hydroelectric Power Station

Highlight • Structure

The Elde is the longest river in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, lies in the south and southwest of this country and connects the area around the Müritz with the Elbe. It flows through several large lakes of the Mecklenburg Lake District in its upper reaches. The last of these lakes is the Plauer See, from which the river is regulated. 180 km of the 208 km long Elde from the southern edge of the Müritz to the Elbe at Dömitz are navigable. They form the Müritz-Elde waterway designated as the federal waterway

At the Neuhöfer carp ponds the Lewitzschleuse is located with a hydroelectric power station. One of 17 locks. Of the 22 hydroelectric power plants in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, 9 are located on the Elde and on the Elde side canal. Here there is a drop of 50 m and they use the free-flow at the locks. The lock was closed in 2009, renovated and reopened in 2010.

Dütschower Brücke Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the observation tower you have a wonderful view of the Lewitz with its ponds, moors, canals, meadows and forests. Photographers with telephoto lenses get their money's worth here.

You can skate here. But you don't have to. The landscape is beautiful, but the asphalt is terrible. It's better to get here on foot than hiker or by bike. This way you can enjoy the landscape much better than constantly being careful not to fall.

Brenzer Canal

Highlight • River

A wonderful nature reserve, only open to cyclists and hikers. Sea eagles, greylag geese, swans and many other birds live and breed here. A beautiful piece of earth, also to ground yourself
