Even though the ground is loose, you can still ride well. There are always little rest stops along the canal – a good thing, especially at 38°C.

The bridge is only accessible to cars in one lane with traffic lights. For cyclists, however, a good, wide cycle path with beautiful views of the canal leads over the bridge.

Lanzer See campsite/ Very nice and ideal for bike packers

The Elbe-Lübeck Canal is a 61 km long federal waterway that connects the Elbe near Lauenburg with the Trave in Lübeck and thus with the Baltic Sea. The Elbe-Lübeck Canal connects the Baltic Sea to the network of Central European inland waterways and is therefore of particular importance. It was built according to the plans of Lübeck's construction director Peter Rehder and opened on June 16, 1900. Along with the Kiel Canal, this was the only German canal of this era that was designed from the outset for 1000-ton ships - a considerable size at the time. Nowadays, however, the locks are too small for many ships, so the Elbe-Lübeck Canal is currently mainly important for smaller inland vessels. The canal is now mainly used to transport bulk goods. The canal also plays a role in leisure and sports shipping between the Baltic Sea and the Elbe. The aim is for the Elbe-Lübeck Canal to be navigable for all inland vessels again after its planned expansion and for it to be able to make its contribution to climate-friendly inland waterway transport. But the Elbe-Lübeck Canal is also important for tourism in the Duchy of Lauenburg district. The "Alte Salzstraße" long-distance cycle route runs along its banks, connecting the old Hanseatic cities of Lüneburg and Lübeck on the trail of the historic salt trade route. https://www.schleswig-holstein.de/DE/fachinhalte/S/schifffahrt_haefen/elbe_luebeck_kanal.html
