쥐드제 최고의 라이딩 경로

가끔씩 이곳에서 마음을 편안히 내려놓을 수 있습니다.

Cycling along the canal is always great. Sheltered from the wind and no hills 😉

⚓ Special Structures Since the branch canal diverges from the Mittelland Canal and heads towards higher ground, two significant differences in elevation must be overcome: Wedtlenstedt Lock at the beginning of the canal, with a drop of 9.30 meters. Üfingen Lock, located shortly before the Salzgitter harbor, also overcomes a drop of 9.30 meters. The canal ends in a large harbor basin in Salzgitter, spanned by a canal bridge built in 1957 over the Oker River. The banks of the canal are largely lined with embankments and serve as a recreational area for anglers, cyclists, and walkers.

🏭 Purpose and History The canal was built in the 1930s as part of the National Socialist industrialization policy to supply the Hermann Göring Works (today Salzgitter AG) with raw materials and to transport finished products. To this day, it serves as a central waterway connection for the Salzgitter region and is essential for the transport of coal, ores, steel products, and other goods.

A stop on the bridge is a must because the crystal clear water is beautiful.

There are paved paths, and it's busy on weekends, so it's better to go during the week.

The old bridge was of course nicer , but with the new bridge the traffic is flowing here again .

always a leisure magnet
