ブライホルツのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

My group passed by here on our "Seelust: Bike Tour to the Kiel Canal" tour. The tour and the entire cycling trip, of which it's a part, are fantastic. We made it through safely.

Please note: Direction Brunsbüttel.

The immediate shore path along the Kiel Canal must be crossed over the road bridge here because of the estuary. A rich flora and fauna has developed on this beach-like biotope: Here you can admire many ducks, rats, and mosquitoes.

The Jevenau is a 10 km long river that originates east of Jevenstedt at the confluence of the Brammer Au and Bokeler Au rivers, where it flows into the Kiel Canal. Before the Kiel Canal was established, the Jevenau flowed into the Eider River. The name "Jevenau" was first documented in 1339 as ad Yevenam. This probably derives from the Old Saxon Gevana, meaning "river rich in bounty" or "river rich in fish." Anglers value the waters for their populations of brown trout, eels, and perch.

A memorial to the fallen soldiers of both World Wars is located at this intersection. It is a place of reflection.

The granite and yellow brick crossing of the mouth of the Haaler Au into the Kiel Canal dates from 1998. Stairs lead down to the water on all sides and the southern stairs not only offer a beautiful view of the lake-like upwelling of the Au, but also provide perfect exposure to the sun.

The pumping station regulates the water levels. When the traffic light flashes orange, the water is being pumped.

Claustal is a small, rural village with direct access from the canal. Livestock farming is practiced here.
