The Sagter Ems originates from the confluence of the Marka and Ohe rivers in Neuscharrel. The confluence point is located just before the southern bank of the Küstenkanal (Coastal Canal), which the Sagter Ems flows under. The Sagter Ems then traverses the Saterland region from south to north, flowing through the villages of Sedelsberg, Scharrel, Ramsloh, Strücklingen, and Bokelesch. Near the hamlet of Roggenberg, the Elisabethfehn Canal flows into the Sagter Ems. From this point until its confluence with the Dreyschloot canal at the border with East Frisia, the Sagter Ems is a federal waterway for 0.56 km,[3] under the jurisdiction of the Ems-Nordsee Waterways and Shipping Authority. The Dreyschloot, artificially constructed between 1848 and 1852, connects to the Barßeler Tief canal and the Jümme river. In East Frisia, the Sagter Ems is known as the Leda. [3] The Leda River, together with the Jümme River, forms the scenic Leda-Jümme region. The Jümme flows into the Leda near Wiltshausen, and shortly thereafter, the Leda flows into the Ems River near Leer (East Frisia). Due to the indirect connection to the North Sea via the Leda and Ems rivers, significant tidal variations can still be observed in the Sagter Ems.

Alternative route to the main road.

A wonderful idea for a rest area

Beautiful old bridge

Nice route to the right of the Jümme.

The Elisabethfehn Canal, a unique section of the Hunte-Ems Canal, was completed in 1893. With a length of 15 km, it connects the Küstenkanal in Kampe with the Leda River in Osterhausen. The canal is 18 m wide, up to 1.50 m deep, and features seven drawbridges and four operable locks. It is not only the last intact fen canal in Germany, but also a listed monument. Today, the canal is primarily used by pleasure boats and offers excellent opportunities for cycling along its banks. Here, you can discover the fascinating traces of the fen culture, which has its origins in the raised bog culture. The drainage of the land led to the construction of canals, along which the typical fen houses were built. For further information about the significance of the canal, the fen culture, and the moors, a visit to the Moor and Fehn Museum in Elisabethfehn, run by the local and beautification association, is worthwhile.

The Dreischloot connects the Jümme and Leda rivers. Since these are tidal rivers, there is no source.

Beautifully done, with a fantastic view of the endless expanse of East Frisia. Inside, you can shelter from the rain 😀
