June 27, 2026, Ohre-Drömling Conservation Area

The Ohre-Drömling nature reserve is located in the border region between Lower Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt and is one of the characteristic lowland wetlands of Northern Germany. At its center is the region around the Ohre River and the large moor and meadow area of the Drömling. The Drömling is an originally very marshy landscape that has been heavily altered over the centuries by drainage and agricultural use. Nevertheless, it has remained an important refuge for many animal and plant species to this day. Typical features include extensive ditches, wet meadows, swamp forests, and small streams.

The small weir on the Aller near Grafhorst is a rather inconspicuous, but important structure for regulating the water level of the Aller. It ensures that the river is controlled and dammed up, while also helping with flood protection in the region.

A nice tip for the route along the Steimker Graben: It's best to walk the route early in the morning or late in the afternoon, when it's quieter and the light is particularly pleasant. The route is well-suited for walking or cycling and offers plenty of greenery and a relaxed atmosphere right by the water – ideal for switching off for a while.

As I said, I would have liked to have seen it in peace, if it had been dry and I had had enough time.

It's a shame it was drizzling and I absolutely had to catch my train, otherwise I would have gladly taken my time again!

In summer almost impassable due to too much vegetation. Currently, a part has also been blocked with logs.

The restaurant is located directly on the Mittellandkanal in the municipality of Rühen (near Wolfsburg-Vorsfelde). The outdoor area is particularly popular in summer, as you can sit directly on the bank and watch the ships go by. It is considered cozy and down-to-earth, often like a classic club-house restaurant (it is located directly at the sports field of SV Blau-Weiß Rühen) with a maritime flair due to its canal location.
