The bridge of the L 126, which crosses the Eider between Hamdorf and Breiholz, has a very beautiful view of the Eider on the western side, especially in the evening when the light river valley appears flooded with sunlight.

The Eider River marks the border between the districts of Dithmarschen and Rendsburg-Eckernförde. The pumping station is located at the idyllic bend of the river. The red brick building is designed to pump biological wastewater from the Eider.

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.
