The Gnevsdorf Weir is located at the end of the approximately 10km stretch on the island between the receiving waters and the Elbe River. It has been passable again since 2024. Impressive engineering.

Since the Elbe fluctuates much more than the Havel, there is another weir directly at the mouth of the receiving water. It has no function during high water, but when the Elbe is low it prevents the Havel from draining.

The "Wittenberge Oil Mill" is a listed building in the town of Wittenberge on the Elbe. The building complex, consisting of the administration building, the mill's main body, workshops and storage facilities, was built in the middle of the 19th century to produce crude oil. Oil production was abandoned following German reunification in 1991. A company then took over the use of the buildings and set up the "Zur Alten Ölmühle" hotel in them. A restaurant and a brewery are attached. Delicious beer and great service!

As of today: no more construction site and freely passable 👍

The Gnevsdorf drainage canal is an approximately eleven-kilometer-long, artificially constructed canal between the Havel and Elbe rivers, serving as an additional outlet into the Elbe. Its design aimed to shift the Elbe's backwater level downstream to a lower level, thus effectively relieving pressure on the Lower Havel during floods. Simultaneously, the canal improves the flow of Havel water to the Elbe, which has a steeper gradient. The Gnevsdorf drainage canal is part of a comprehensive flood control system that also includes several weirs and the Havelberg lock. A fantastic route along the Elbe Cycle Path, a relaxed tour with no significant difficulties. The scenery is beautiful, always by the water, pure nature. The old farmhouses are charming, and the route is very varied.

The Elbe cycle path is a very beautiful and varied river cycle path. Absolute driving recommendation!

It looks quite interesting when storks become such close neighbors. The clattering could also be funny. Nice to be able to see something like that.

Currently closed due to construction work. Since last fall. You can continue to the next weir at the mouth of the Havel and cross there. The construction work there seems to be almost finished, at least the crossing is easier than last autumn.
