오펜뷔텔 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Sunsets are easy to observe here because the land is so flat. Whether this is a local highlight is up to each individual to decide.

From this dike-like elevation, you have a wonderful view of the fork in the Eider River and the Giselau Canal. This is the only connection between the Eider and the Kiel Canal.

During the construction of the Kiel Canal (NOK), a connection between the Kiel Canal and the Eider River was created in Rendsburg. However, because the lock increasingly hindered road traffic in Rendsburg, an alternative lock was built further west in 1937: The Gieselau Lock. Since then, this lock has connected the Eider River with the Kiel Canal in the Gieselau Valley, south of Prinzenmoor. The Gieselau Canal is only navigable during the summer months.

Road traffic, and thus also the hiking trail, is routed through the truly picturesque Giselau Lock. Visitors rattle along wooden planks. The canal is beautifully situated and runs through a rather quiet, rural area.

The Gieselau Canal has connected the Eider River with the Kiel Canal (NOK) since 1937. The approximately 2 km long canal serves primarily as a link between the two waterways for recreational boating. This requires a lock to balance water levels and currents.

The Gieselau Canal is approx. 2.8 km long and ships with a length of up to 65.0 m, a width of up to 2.70 m and a draft of up to 2.70 m can be navigated through the Gieselau lock. The Gieselau lock is primarily used by sports boats ⛵️...

The Gieselau lock is the only connection between the NOK and the Eider. The lock connects the NOK with the Eider-Treene-Sorge river landscape. In the heart of the region, the three rivers Eider, Trennen and Sorge form the largest connected river and lowland area in Schleswig-Holstein 💙...
