    The Bederkesa Geeste Canal was built in the years 1858-1860, as the Hadelner Canal had long been economically successful and the Kingdom of Hanover, a connection to its new port Geestemünde considered useful. These 11 kilometers were but only until the construction of the Sielanlage Schiffdorfer traffic lock in the Geeste 1898 and only passable at high tide.

      The canal and the view of it (there and back) was a welcome feast for the eyes
      after tens of kilometers of streets, paths, forests and meadows.
