The former heavily fortified inner-German border ran here. Fortunately, it is history and you can explore the wonderful nature on the former border paths. The federal states of Brandenburg, Saxony-Anhalt and Lower Saxony collide.

Nowadays you can go cycling or hiking on the former border strip. I always enjoy traveling (mostly by bike) in the Aland lowlands. Here you have a wonderful, wide view and very good opportunities to observe lots of birds and bird species, from small songbirds to greylag geese, herons and cranes, to sea eagles.
The Aland Bridge also offers a great view of Schnackenburg.
