Jümme Riverside Nature Area

Highlight • River

Up Sunnsied Oostfreeslands

The Jümme holiday region is a paradise for cyclists, anglers, active holidaymakers and those seeking relaxation. Wide hammocks, meadows, hedgerows, dikes and the Filsum raised moor characterize the landscape. There are nice cycling opportunities following the well-signposted junction system. You cross the rivers on a crank ferry or with the “Pünte” – the oldest hand-operated ferry in Northern Europe. An exciting crossing over the Leda offers Germany's narrowest car bridge in Amdorf.
With a total of 22 standing and flowing bodies of water, there are ideal conditions for fishing and canoeing. The Jümmesee leisure complex with a campsite, adventure playground, small skate park and boules pitch invites you to relax. A highlight is the garden market “Burggarten Stickhausen” on the medieval castle complex.

Yeah, but there's almost always something to see...

Especially because the Jümme is a river.
I find it superfluous.

It is ideal for a quiet break right on the water.

Jümme River

Highlight • River

It emerges from the Barßeler Tief at the point where the Dreyschloot branches off to the left to the Leda - as a side mouth from the currents. The Barßeler Tief arises 4.66 km upstream from the Soeste as a larger source river and hydrographically numbered 3881, the upper reaches of the Jümme. This unites there with the Nordlohe Low, today specifically combined with the Barßel Low to form the Nordlohe-Barßel Low. It arises at the confluence of the Nordloher Canal from the Godensholter Tief, with the floodplain from the Zwischenahner Meer combined to form the Aue-Godensholter Tief watercourse.

The stretch of the Jümme between the branch of the Dreyschloot and its junction with the Leda measures 18.33 km. After just two and a half kilometers, the Aper Tief flows from the right at Detern, and after eight kilometers below Stickhausen, the Nordgeorgsfehn Canal, which connects the river system with the Ems-Jade Canal, flows into it.

Dreyschloot Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The Dreyschloot connects the rivers Jümme and Leda in the south of East Friesland, which as “two streams” represent one of the most beautiful regions in East Friesland.
Because of the Barkter Straße / Deichstraße, which leads from Detern to Barßel, the Dreyschloot has exactly this lifting bridge.
If you drive the northern path along the Leda to get to Barßel, you will experience the meaning of the lift bridge and can - crossing the connecting channel - then cycle a short way to Barßel. Otherwise you have to drive a large curve along Dreyschloot and Jümme in order to be able to cross them at Detern. From there you can reach Barßel via the Nordloher Tief and Tange. There the Jümme, which from then on is called “Soeste”, continues through Frisoythe and the Tülsfeld dam. Your source is at Emstek.
Shortly after the Dreyschloot Bridge, the Elisabeth Fehn Canal goes off. The Leda, which in turn is called "Sagter Ems" in Saterland, then continues through Ramsloh and Scharrel before - like Soeste - it crosses the coastal canal and rises in the Emsland as an "Ohe" near Spahnharrenstätte.

Depending on the wind direction, you can easily roll along a lonely road here.
It rolls along the "Barßeler Tief", where the road follows the course of the river.
Asphalt is good!

Lake Jümme

Highlight • Lake

story

The Jümmesee is named after the river Jümme, which flows directly past the lake. It was created in the early 1980s by sand removal for the construction of the B 72, which leads from the Cloppenburg junction of the A 1 to the ferry terminal to Norddeich.
