Unfortunately, it seems that the place is no longer really being maintained. - Whoever has kindly done so until now - Of the original 3 beach chairs, only one remains and it is not in good condition. Tables and loungers have completely disappeared. I hope everything is just in maintenance and will return. It would be nice if this beautiful place had more to offer than the one remaining bench above the lock...

@Tobi.BU, that's right. 🤷♂️ Frequently used, inconspicuous tips like "Very interesting here" may not be very substantial, but they also fit after converting from a bike highlight to a hiking highlight or after merging two highlights that have nothing to do with each other.😉 Usually, you don't even notice. Thanks for the hint.

It's worth not following the signpost for bicycles and leaving the paved road straight ahead or following the dike path after the lock between the Warwerorter Canal and the connecting canal. I also subjected myself to the bumpy stretch past the lakes and canal on the 16" tires of my Brompton, as it is simply too beautiful to possibly avoid uphill pushing and shaking with a comparatively boring asphalt stretch...

Hey @DakenH, Komoot's AI has mashed two of your highlights together that should be separate? 😉 Via https://support.komoot.com/hc/de/categories/10073864496666-Technische-Probleme-und-Fehlerbehebung -> Request setup (top right) you can have the separation arranged by the human team if you explicitly request it in text and want to chat with a computer...

Historic working and sailing ships are moored here, showing what coastal shipping and fishing looked like in the past.
