Elbe-Lübeck Canal in Güster

Highlight • Bridge

If you have seen 300 meters from the Elbe-Seiten-Canal, the landscape does not change for 10 km before or after.

View of Prüßsee

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

The Diebsradenweg leads along the western bank of the Prüßsee. It's easy to hike here and you'll also pass the "Seeburger Schlüs" and the "Deewrad". There is also one of the few public lake accesses here, but you have to go down the embankment to access it. Most of the properties here are privately owned and the lake is not accessible. Otherwise the lake shore is relatively overgrown and unfortunately you only have good views of the lake from a few places.

The large, free parking lot at the Blue Lagoon is a good starting point for all kinds of tours in the area.
After the tour ends, you can also fortify yourself with food and drink in the Blue Lagoon in the warmer seasons.

Prüßsee Bathing Island

Highlight • Beach

The bathing area is located at the "Badeinsel Güster / Blaue Lagune" campsite, south of the village center of Güster, on the southern shore of the Prüßsee lake, which was created from former gravel pits and is up to 17 meters deep. An entrance fee must be paid at the "Blaue Lagune" restaurant to enter the bathing area.

The bathing island was artificially built up with sand and offers a real sandy beach feeling in the middle of the Duchy of Lauenburg. The approximately 250-meter-long shore strip is bordered by reed belts, which must not be entered or passed through. The non-swimmer and swimmer areas in the water are separated by a chain.

The large sandy beach offers almost exclusively sunbathing spots.

Near the bathing area, there is a restaurant, and at the campsite, there are toilet and shower facilities.

Stand-up paddling and canoeing are permitted on the lake.

Swimming spots at Prüßsee

Highlight • Lake

As the title already says, there are many great little bathing spots here at Prüßsee, which also invite you to take a spontaneous break. Also ideal for dogs, who can cool down here in the summer.

Prüßsee

Highlight • Lake

The lake received the name of the gravel plant manager Paul Prüß, who had been running the plant since 1934 and, although it was not yet a requirement, had areas that had been decommissioned restored.

Crime scene: former Güster gravel pit

We enjoyed the continuous sun 🌞 so much 💛!

It didn't matter to us that the tour around the Prüßsee ran a few hundred meters on asphalt and another hundred meters on wide slopes.
The view 👁 of the lake and the wide landscape made up for it.
But when the liquid manure truck …

Today the sun finally shone again and it was a bit more pleasant than the last few days, despite the still freezing wind.
Ideal conditions to try out my new telephoto zoom.
So first few pictures and little text.
