    Schöne Strecke, die man auch auf dem SUP sehr mit Kindern fahren kann. Sie ist recht ruhig mit nur leichter Strömung. Tipp: wenn beim Einstieg das Auto wieder abholt, kann man wunderbar beim dortigen Anglerheim einkehren.

    schöne Tour im Juli 2026. Niedrigwasser. zwischen Sömmerda und bis hinter Bottendorf sollte man aufmerksam sein und auf Steine im Wasser achten besonders mit Faltboot. Übernachtungen sehr gut in Sömmerda, Artern, Bottendorf, Karsdorf möglich. Umtragungen teilweise etwas lästig, da steile Treppen zu überwinden sind. Bootswagen empfehlenswert. im Oberlauf angenehme Strömung.

    Wenn man bei der Ausstiegsstelle Rappenkopfbrücke aussteigt bitte nicht den Einstieg wie in der Tour wählen, sondern den offiziellen Einstieg an der Zuckerbrücke nehmen! Ein Mitarbeiter des Regierungspräsidiums hat uns darauf hingewiesen.

    Eigentlich wollte ich die Tour mit dem Fahrgastschiff machen. Meine Familie hatte andere Pläne und im Nachhinein bin ich froh darüber. Wir sind zum Leppinsee und haben uns dort Kajaks ausgeliehen. Damit ging es los Richtung Mirow. Ich war über den Umfang der Gewässer erstaunt. Man fährt durch mehrere zusammenhängende Gewässer, bis man Mirow erreicht. Pause gemacht haben wir in Granzow. Das ist ein Feriendorf, in dem man gut Pizza essen kann. Den Weg nach Mirow ziert ein Meer aus Seerosen. Die Vögel im Uferbereich sind artenreich. Mit der Personenfähre hätten wir vieles sicher nicht in Ruhe beobachten können. Im nächsten Urlaub wollen wir eine Mehrtagestour wagen.
