    Hiking

    The mouth of the Fösse River is located in the Limmer district of Hanover, where the small river flows into the Leine after about 8 km – very close to the Leine Connection Canal.

    The Fösse River is a rather inconspicuous but ecologically interesting body of water. Due to saline inflows from the Benth salt dome and former potash mining dumps, it has an unusually high salinity – in some places even higher than that of the North Sea.

    Hiking

    Here the Fösse flows into the line, which branches out at this point anyway, since it also joins the connecting channel here. So three waterways at once.

    Hiking

    The Fösse is the "local stream" of the Hanover district of Linden.
    It is an 8 km long left tributary of the Leine.
