Description by the author

Between Gartow, Lenzen, and Schnackenburg, not only the beavers are on the move again. The white-tailed eagle also has its hunting ground here. On the family-friendly beaver tour with two ferry crossings over the Elbe, you can get very close to them, maybe you'll spot one or two! An ideal vantage point for panoramic views of the river landscape is the Höhbeck near Gartow, a glacial esker that rises 67 meters above the Elbe valley and drops steeply to the north and east. However, the cross-border beaver tour not only offers a variety of fascinating nature experiences. Here, in the tri-border area of Lower Saxony, Brandenburg, and Saxony-Anhalt, the former inner-German border situation is still palpable. Many places along the tour remember and commemorate this so that this part of our history is not forgotten. Also recommended is the Grenzlandmuseum Schnackenburg, which is located halfway along the route.
