Relaxed, you cast off at Canower Lake with the moving wooden cabin heading east. After passing the first lock and crossing Lake Pälitz and Lake Ellenbogen, the small idyllic village of Priepert can already be seen in the distance.
Further on, the raft drifts towards a paradise with a fascinating scenery. Surrounded by vast, dark green forests on the banks and the scent of water and nature in your nose, the journey takes you across three smoothly glistening lakes to Fürstenberg an der Havel. In the picturesque water town, numerous coffee shops invite you to take a break. If you like, you can also anchor in a bay on the surrounding lakes, in the lee of the reeds, and go swimming.
After the last lock, the path leads once completely over the Stolpsee to the small village Himmelpfort - numerous wish lists are sent here at Christmas time. A detour to the monastery ruins with adjacent herb garden and a small refreshment in the brewery are worthwhile to recharge your batteries for the upcoming return trip.
