ジールクスラーデのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

A beautiful replica of a historic boat

An inconspicuous wooden bridge leading away from the canal towards Berkenthin

Beautiful church directly above the Elbe-Lübeck Canal... you can't miss it if you cross the canal on the bridge right in front of it.

A lovely path along the canal... You can often spot waterfowl... the only downside: the path offers little shade.

A lovely rest area with several seating areas not far from the lock... Thanks to the large fish sculpture, you can't miss it.

Whether hiking or fishing, the view from the platform is excellent.

Unfortunately, I found the large church closed (on weekdays). However, there's a lovely bench in front of the church, and the old gravestones and crosses around the church are worth exploring.

The Elbe-Lübeck Canal dominates the landscape around Kühsen. Since 1900, it has connected the Elbe and Trave rivers, flowing peacefully through fields and meadows. Today, it is primarily used by pleasure boats. A well-developed hiking trail runs directly along the shore, ideal for longer walks—whether toward Lauenburg or Lübeck. The tranquil setting and waterfront views make the canal a popular spot for excursions and outdoor breaks.
