The Stör estuary in Schleswig-Holstein is a scenic area where the Stör flows into the Elbe. The Stör is a major tributary of the Elbe and stretches approximately 85 kilometers from its source near Neumünster to its mouth near Wewelsfleth. The region around the Stör estuary offers numerous recreational opportunities and nature experiences. One of the main attractions is the Stör Barrage, which serves to protect the inland areas from flooding and storm surges. The barrage, built in the 1970s, regulates the water level of the Stör and protects the adjacent marshlands. For nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts, there are numerous cycling and hiking trails along the Stör and its estuary. The Elbe Cycle Path and the Monks' Path lead directly through this region and offer magnificent views of the river landscape and passing ships on the Elbe.

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.
