The outer dike of St. Margarethen is located near the Elbe and is now an important bird sanctuary. Originally, this area was part of a dike system that protected the hinterland from flooding. Over time, the harbor creek became increasingly silted up and port operations were discontinued. Today, the outer dike provides an important habitat for numerous bird species and is a popular destination for nature observation and cycling tours. The outer dike and the surrounding area are ideal for hikes and bike rides along the Elbe, with wonderful views of the passing ships. Historically, the area was also the site of a pilot station, but this was not rebuilt after a fire in 1902.

The emergence of the Braake is still quite young and, above all, powerful. When one of the worst catastrophes swept across the North Sea in the form of the “Christmas Flood 1717” on Boxing Day in 1717, it destroyed the dykes in many places. This is also the case in many places along the Elbe. The water masses of the Christmas flood brought death and ruin, they destroyed large regions and they created new landscapes.

Lake Brake is one of the lakes in Schleswig-Holstein and is located near Germany's deepest point of land near Kudensee on the Kiel Canal. The Brake is a flat lake in the marshland in the Wilstermarsch. This lake was created in 1721 during the New Years Flood, a severe storm surge. It had unbridled access over a wide area, but only four years earlier the heavy Christmas flood of 1717 had destroyed the dikes in many places and claimed thousands of deaths. As a result, the impoverished and, since starving, people were not able to do more than just makeshift repairs by hand. In addition, this flood was about 30 centimeters higher than the previous Christmas flood. Even if the storm wasn't as strong as that of 1717, it lasted a lot longer. It will have gone into land for some time before the water from the surroundings, which is below sea level, ran off again. We are talking about weeks and months here. This further tragedy was the origin of the Brake, the small shallow lake that remained when the water withdrew. Today the Brake belongs to a unique and diverse biotope with a footpath, information board and a small viewing platform. From here you can look over the tall bank plants to the Kiel Canal.
