You experience a magnificent landscape

Beautiful cycle path (on the top of the dyke or on a path behind it that is a little more sheltered from the wind). From the dyke you have a wonderful view over the Elbe valley - meadows as far as the eye can see and the Elbe glittering in between.

Experience nature at its purest, a truly great experience, a dreamlike river landscape! The Elbe Valley Biosphere Reserve is a cycling region with a particularly well-developed cycle path infrastructure. The Elbe Cycle Path has been Germany's most popular long-distance cycle path for years. The cycle junction signposting opens up around 1000 km of cycle paths in the biosphere reserve and neighboring regions.

Simply stunningly beautiful nature!

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.

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.

The stork result for 2022 is 29 young birds from 26 pairs. The young bird record of 87 in 38 pairs was dated 1994, since then the trend has been declining

Nowhere in Germany do so many storks nest in such a small space as in the European stork village of Rühstädt near the Elbe. The place is beautifully decorated and offers several options for a good stop.
