The Black Lake was created by clay mining. That's why there is still an old brickyard in Garbsen's city park, which is home to bats.

South of the Schaumburg Forest and Lake Steinhude, it continues to Seelze near Hanover. Here, the Leine Valley is crossed by two bridges with a short reach between them. The still existing, but only provisionally used "Old Canal" was supplemented in its original width during the expansion by a "New Canal" built parallel to the north and opened in 1999.[3] The Hanover-Linden branch canal and its Leine connecting canal provide access to the Leine and Ihme. The MLK then crosses the north and east of Hanover to the Anderten lock, which raises the water level by 14.70 m.

In Minden, the Mittelland Canal crosses the Weser River at the Minden Waterway Interchange on two trough bridges. Connections to the Weser River are available via the northern connecting canal and the Schachtschleuse lock, the newer Weser lock, or the southern connecting canal with the two locks of the industrial port.

The western section branches off from the Dortmund-Ems Canal at the Nasses Dreieck near Bergeshövede in the Tecklenburger Land region at 50.3 m above sea level, without any elevation gain, crosses the foothills of the Teutoburg Forest in the Gravenhorst Gorge, and then continues eastward north of the Wiehen Hills. Near Bramsche, the Hase River is crossed, and the Osnabrück branch canal branches off to the south.

The canal is also known as the Ems-Weser Canal, Weser-Ems Canal, Weser-Elbe Canal, Rhine-Elbe Canal, Elbe-Weser-Ems Canal, or Ems-Weser-Elbe Canal. These are old or regional names that are rarely used anymore.

The Mittelland Canal (MLK) is a federal waterway[2] and, at 325.3 kilometers long, the longest artificial waterway in Germany. Including branch and connecting canals, the length is 392 km. It connects the Dortmund-Ems Canal with the Weser, Elbe, and Elbe-Havel Canal. In a broader sense, it is part of a connection between the Rhine and Oder. In the west, the connection to the Rhine is established via the Dortmund-Ems Canal and the Rhine-Herne Canal or the Wesel-Datteln Canal. In the east, the Elbe-Havel Canal, the Lower Havel Waterway, and the Havel-Oder Waterway connect the Mittelland Canal with the Oder. In European terms, it provides a connection between the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, France, and Switzerland on the one hand, and Poland and the Czech Republic on the other.

A safety gate is a structure used to securely close a navigation channel in the area of a causeway or a canal bridge, i.e., sections where the water level is above the surrounding terrain.[1] By lowering a steel closure body adapted to the canal bed, the entire canal section is prevented from leaking in the event of damage (e.g., a dam break) and the flooding of the surrounding terrain is reduced. There are safety gates that close automatically as soon as the canal water level has dropped by a certain amount. Safety gates can also be used to drain canal sections, e.g., for inspections or to repair damage to the canal bed seal.
