Very diverse birdlife to the right and left of the path, the viewing platforms are worth climbing.

Many water birds can be observed. There are special viewing points.

It is worth taking a moment to stop here and watch the water birds.

These include frogs, toads, newts, waders, ducks and even ospreys and sea eagles. In autumn, many migratory birds overwinter at Lake Steinhude or rest there. Source: steinhuder-meer.de

In contrast to the Lahde weir crossing with its horribly steep ramp on the Petershäger side, the weir at Schlüsselburg is a beautiful and comfortable way to cross the Weser. And the panoramic view over the Weser to the north and south is just awesome. If the sky is clear, you can see as far south as Kaiser Wilhelm. And to the north the long brightness before and after Midsummer.👍😊

The core nature reserve "Schustufe Schlüsselburg" is formed by the dammed 5.5 km long "upper water" of the Weser loop near Schlüsselburg, including the narrow bank meadows between the Weser dykes. The foreland between the dike and the Weser stands out due to its great biodiversity and structural diversity. Nestled in meadows that are managed under nature conservation principles, there are several small bodies of water with meadow meadow forests, well-developed reed areas and herbaceous meadows. Field hedges, groups of trees, small bodies of water and uncultivated fringe strips on the Weser also contribute to the habitat diversity. In addition to a rich birdlife, there is also an interesting insect fauna here. Apart from the numerous species of water birds that frequent the Weser, there are also many songbirds here.
