The Elbe (Low German: Elv, Czech: Labe, Latin: Albis) is a Central European river that originates in the Czech Republic, flows through Germany, and empties into the North Sea. It drains, among other things, a large part of eastern Germany and almost all of Bohemia, which is surrounded by low mountain ranges. The most well-known rivers in its catchment area include the Vltava, the Mulde, the Saale, the Havel with the Spree, and the Elde with the Müritz. Characterized by the low mountain ranges in its upper reaches, it further follows two glacial valleys in the North German Plain. Measured by the size of its catchment area of 148,300 km², the Elbe ranks fourth in Central Europe according to the list of rivers in Europe, behind the Danube, the Vistula, and the Rhine, and followed by the Oder and the Memel.[6] Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elbe

In the past, many people would swim here, but now it is privately owned and all bathing facilities have been blocked off. Locals also call it the water quarry because there is another one nearby. If you like quarries, there are the Hohburg Mountains nearby, where there are even more and larger quarries.

When the water level is low, the famous hunger stones appear.
