Jevenau River
Highlight • River
Before the Kiel Canal was established, the Jevenau flowed into the Eider River.
The name "Jevenau" was first documented in 1339 as ad Yevenam. This probably derives from the Old Saxon Gevana, meaning "river rich in bounty" or "river rich in fish." Anglers value the waters for their populations of brown trout, eels, and perch.

Schülp Junction on the Kiel Canal
Highlight • Viewpoint
With the construction of the Eider Canal, the Eider was straightened near Schülp and with the construction of the Kiel Canal, the border town on the Eider lost its importance. The canal became a workplace for many students and gained in importance. It divides the community into two parts and you have to accept a major detour via the tunnel in Rendsburg or via the Breiholz ferry to get to the other part of the town.
The village lies on a sand hill from the last Ice Age. A sand dune more than 10 m high, the Rüsterberg, is located in the southwest on the canal. From this elevation you can have a very nice view of the Eider lowlands and the Kiel Canal. Through the canal and the adjacent forest and meadow areas with the quiet farm roads, the place offers those looking for relaxation, nature lovers, whether hikers, cyclists or horseback riders, many opportunities to recover from everyday stress far away from the traffic centers.
The canal with the large ships, whether freighters, tankers or passenger ships, always offers the guests at the pilot station and the points beautiful experiences and variety. Whether you are a walker, hiker or cyclist, anyone who wants to rest or rest at the pilot station on the Kiel Canal in Schülp can do so in the "Lachmann-Hütte", a shelter made of robust wood with a table and benches.
