The Wandse (also known as the Eilbek in the lower reaches) has its source west of the village of Siek in the Stormarn district in Schleswig-Holstein and flows into the Alster in the center of Hamburg. It includes the Braaker Au in the Höltigbaum, the Stellmoorer source river in the Stellmoorer Tunneltal, the Stellau in Rahlstedt, the Berner Au in Farmsen and the Rahlau in Tonndorf. From the Mühlenteich in Wandsbek it is called Eilbek and flows via the Eilbek Canal, the Kuhmühlenteich and the Mundsburger Canal in Hohenfelde into the Outer Alster.

Hiking

The small temporary bridge over the Wandse is not very pretty, but it is important because it serves its purpose and gets you dry-footed from one federal state to the other over the Wandse, which forms the border between Hamburg and Schleswig-Holstein.

A narrow path meanders through dense green.
