View of the confluence of the Boize and Sude rivers
Highlight • Viewpoint
The Boize rises west of the Schaalsee and the Seedorfer Kuechensee in the east of Schleswig-Holstein near the village Seedorf at a height of about 40 m above sea level. NHN in a wooded area called Birkenort. From here, the boize runs in a southerly direction initially very winding, until it forms the border between Schleswig-Holstein and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern on a section east of Gudow.
On Mecklenburgian territory, the largely straightened Boize under Lüttow-Valluhn underpasses the Federal Highway 24 and runs parallel to the Federal Highway 195. In Boizenburg / Elbe, the Boize feeds a ring-shaped ditch system around the city center with ramparts. The last meters of the river are developed as a port facility, at which also the old Elbewerft Boizenburgs was. Here at the northern tip of the biosphere reserve Flusslandschaft Elbe-Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, the Boize flows into the Sude, which itself flows into the Elbe after a few meters on the right.
The mouth of the Sude was relocated in 1983 from the place Gothmann in the Boizenburg port entrance, so that the Boize became the tributary of the Sude. Previously, the bogee flowed directly into the Elbe.
The source of the Boize lies to the south of the North Sea Baltic Sea watershed, because while the water reaches the North Sea via the Sude and Elbe, the Ratzeburg Lake, which lies just a few kilometers north of the source, drains into the Baltic Sea via the Wakenitz. Tributaries of the Boize include the Grenzgraben Klein-Zecher, the Gudower Grenzgraben, the Waldmoorbach, the Färbergraben and numerous drainage ditches.

View of the Sude River Mouth
Highlight • Viewpoint
The Sude is an 85 kilometer long, right (eastern) tributary of the Elbe in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and Lower Saxony
The Sude rises in a forest near the Black Moor between Renzow and Groß Welzin and from there crosses the Dümmersee to the east. The water then flows away in a southerly direction. Near Bandenitz it crosses under the federal highway 24. It flows past Hagenow to the east.
The river then runs in a fairly elongated right-hand arc to the west, north past Lübtheen and crosses the Lower Saxon community of Amt Neuhaus.
Finally, the Sude flows west of Boizenburg/Elbe at Elbe river kilometer 559.52 into the Elbe, which in this area is the border river with Lower Saxony.
From 1842 onwards, the Sude flowed into the Elbe at kilometer 557 near Gothmann. The course was relocated to the Boizenburg harbor around 1983, so that the Boize became a tributary of the Sude.

Beauty overload? There is! 😍 Boizenburg with its historic ramparts, the willow walk and the small harbor totally blew me away today. The three "highlights" would have been enough for a great hike.
But it wasn't going to stop there... ➜ see pictures! I don't have the time for lengthy texts. 😅
It's also worth …
