    The 15.6 km long Pfinzentlastungskanal connects the Pfinz near Karlsruhe Grötzingen with the Rhine near Leopoldshafen and serves to relieve the flood. More details at: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pfinz-Entlastungskanal

      The ideal place for a lunch break.

        Driving on the canal is great. Here's a place to stop.

          Along the Pfinzentlastungskanal, which runs in the cool forest, one then meets this weir

            Great opportunity to ride a bike from Grötzingen to Leopoldshafen to Andreasbräu or to the ferry.

              It seems to me that in good weather at said bank a meet-and-greet of cyclists from all over Karlsruhe will take place. I met many people there.

                There is also a bench with a table in the shade under a tree by the weir. In my opinion, this is a very nice opportunity to take a break. But you have to bring a cold beer ;-)

                  There is also a somewhat encrusted, picnic table under a big tree. Nice spot for a break

                    Right next to it is a table with two benches. Perfect for a break in the shade on a summer tour

                      Great idyllic bike path. The places that are available also invite you to take a break.

                        The relief channel serves as flood protection.

                          Very nice place for a rest. Bench and table available. Here the frogs are croaking. The Pfinz relief canal runs in the Upper Rhine plain between Karlsruhe-Grötzingen and Leopoldshafen. The 15.6 kilometer long canal diverts flood water from the Pfinz to the Rhine

                            Nice way, but beware because of the roots

                              The forest enthusiasts are enjoying their delicious beer here. Bock beer is especially tasty at the moment.

                                The place is suitable for a little break: a hut and a shady tree with benches and a table. And the weir gurgles to itself. Nice!
                                Next to Grabener Alee. At 15 km the longest "ray" from the castle tower in Karlsruhe. And the Hirschgraben flows into the canal here.
                                Status September 2021: Only one bench can be used at the picnic table.
                                Status August 2023: The ailing bank was renewed by Forst BW.

                                  Great weir on the canal. You can cycle along the canal nicely.

                                    Dams are there when the water is too high so that they don't let out as much!
