You experience a magnificent landscape

Beautiful cycle path (on the top of the dyke or on a path behind it that is a little more sheltered from the wind). From the dyke you have a wonderful view over the Elbe valley - meadows as far as the eye can see and the Elbe glittering in between.

The tower is located on the Brandenburg section of the Green Belt on the former inner-German border. An imposing landmark that can be seen from afar. The tower was largely left in its original condition and was designated a National Natural Monument in 2022. Visitors can access it via an attached external spiral staircase, thus transforming the former border tower into an observation tower.

Experience nature at its purest, a truly great experience, a dreamlike river landscape! The Elbe Valley Biosphere Reserve is a cycling region with a particularly well-developed cycle path infrastructure. The Elbe Cycle Path has been Germany's most popular long-distance cycle path for years. The cycle junction signposting opens up around 1000 km of cycle paths in the biosphere reserve and neighboring regions.

Simply stunningly beautiful nature!

Here the dyke was set back quite a bit, on a large section, between Lenzen and Lütkenwisch. This means that the Elbe has more space to flow in the event of flooding. When there is no flooding, there is a beautiful floodplain landscape here, a paradise for birds and wild animals. At the eastern end of the area is the "Auenblick" shelter, a lovely place to take a rest, with a magnificent view. A unique experience, especially during a beautiful sunset or sunrise. At night, you can wonderfully observe the starry sky and take photos, as there is relatively little light pollution in this area.

The Schwedenschanze on the Höhbeck is a historical fortification that got its name from its use by Swedish troops during the Thirty Years' War. Today the Schwedenschanze is an interesting destination for those interested in history and hikers who want to immerse themselves in history and enjoy nature at the same time. The observation tower offers you a fantastic all-round view of the southern section of the Lower Saxony Elbe Valley Biosphere Reserve. From the platform you can see the impressive Elbe, which winds through the landscape. The riparian forests, wet meadows and sand banks that surround Europe's fourth largest river are a habitat for numerous bird species, insects and the Elbe beaver.

Walkable border tower with a great view.
