Amber Beach

Highlight • Beach

Also open on Mondays, including the outdoor terrace!
In the meantime, only self-service at the machines or a radio transmitter (pager) when the food is ready. The machine is very friendly, finally someone to talk to.

Beach 🏖️ is the order of the day here.

The chairs and shade provided make you feel a bit like you're in the Caribbean.

Palm trees 🌴 and small tents create that feeling!

Elbe Lateral Canal at Stüde (Sassenburg)

Highlight • River

There is a great gravel path along the connecting canal from the Mittelland Canal to the Elbe. You can watch the ships and there are plenty of benches where you can take a rest.

View of the Elbe Lateral Canal from the Bridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

Due to the inner-German division, a very important shipping connection was lost for the Federal Republic of Germany, because the Magdeburg waterway junction was in the GDR. As a result, the Elbe (and the North Sea) could no longer be reached from the Mittelland Canal. To create an alternative for this, a new canal was built between 1968 and 1976.

West of Wolfsburg near Edesbüttel, the Elbe Lateral Canal branches off from the Mittelland Canal and runs close to Uelzen and Lüneburg to Artlenburg, where it flows into the Elbe.

Since Lüneburg was only about 25 km from the former inner-German border, the eastern canal embankment was created as a barrier for tank troops. On the western side, the bridges and underpasses were equipped with explosive shafts.

The channel is 115.2 kilometers long, has an average depth of 4.0-4.5 meters and a width of 55-70 meters. The height difference of approx. 61 meters is overcome by the Uelzen lock (23 metres) and the Scharnebeck ship lift (38 metres). The canal's water supply comes exclusively from the Elbe by means of pumping stations at the canal stages. About 80% of the canal is secured with 22 cm thick asphalt concrete to prevent water from escaping.

Amber Lake

Highlight • Lake

A very nice excursion destination where everyone gets their money's worth.
Whether swimming 🏊 in the lake, water skiing or just lazing around on the beach. There is also mini golf or a go-kart track. There is also a weekend settlement right next to the lake!
Of course you can also go hiking 🥾 or cycling 🚴‍♀️. There are a few small restaurants to keep you well-fed.
The Elbe-Seiten-Kanal is right behind the park.
All in all, it is highly recommended!👍
