The Emster Canal or Emster Waters is the name given to the Emster River, which is canal-like over long stretches, the lake sections over the Lehniner Klostersee, the Netzener See and the Rietzer See as well as the artificially created canal sections between the present-day municipality of Kloster Lehnin and the Havel in the area of the city of Brandenburg an der Havel.
The upper reaches of the Emster Canal are located in the Potsdam-Mittelmark district on the northern edge of the Zauche. The length of the Emster from the source to the mouth is given as 20.9 kilometres. The state waterway is 15.67 kilometres long. The Emster waters have only a slight gradient. It lies on average at an altitude of 29 metres above sea level and, coming from the south, flows into the Lower Havel Waterway at kilometre 51.70 opposite the village of Klein Kreutz in Brandenburg an der Havel.
