Everything you need to know about our tidal barriers\u2026<\/h2>\n

The purpose of our beautiful dykes is to protect our marshlands against floods. Since we have a lot of harbours and boats in our region, we also need tidal barriers that open regularly so that ships can pass. To help you with your planning and to avoid you getting stuck on your way due to an open tidal barrier, we have listed the opening hours of our tidal barriers here.<\/p>\n

Important! To avoid any confusion!<\/p>\n

Open tidal barriers are open for ships and closed for cyclists! This means that the closed tidal barriers are open for cyclists to pass.

The tidal barriers are closed every 60 minutes on weekdays, which means that they can be crossed for a short period every 60 minutes. Apart from during lunchtime, the tidal barriers are closed for ships and therefore open for cyclists and pedestrians on Saturdays, Sundays and on public holidays. If a ship needs to go through the barrier, it will be closed for crossings by pedestrians and cyclists whilst the ship passes through.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition to the tidal barriers, there is a swing bridge located inland as an alternative option to cross the river Pinnau.<\/span>[\/mk_fancy_title][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/mk_page_section][mk_page_section layout_structure=”half_right” bg_image=”https:\/\/gluecks-routen.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/krueckau-sperrwerk-c-gdm-fotograf-kratz.jpg” bg_color=”#074f4f” full_width=”true” padding_top=”0″ padding_bottom=”0″ section_id=”krueckau”][vc_column][vc_row_inner el_id=”krueckau”][vc_column_inner css=”.vc_custom_1549990761226{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 50px !important;}”][mk_fancy_title strip_tags=”true” tag_name=”h1″ color=”#95c11f” size=”28″ font_weight=”400″ letter_spacing=”1″ margin_bottom=”10″ font_family=”none” align=”center”]Tidal barrier Kr\u00fcckau[\/mk_fancy_title][mk_fancy_title tag_name=”span” color=”#ffffff” size=”18″ font_family=”none” align=”center”]These opening hours apply from 1 May to 30 September.<\/span><\/p>\n

From May to early October, you also have the option to cross the river Kr\u00fcckau the old-fashioned way with Germany\u2019s smallest ferry between Neuendorf and Seester.<\/a><\/span>[\/mk_fancy_title][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/mk_page_section][mk_page_section layout_structure=”half_left” bg_image=”https:\/\/gluecks-routen.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/das-stoersperrwerk-c-gdm-fotograf-kratz.jpg” bg_color=”#074f4f” full_width=”true” padding_top=”0″ padding_bottom=”0″ section_id=”wischhafen”][vc_column][vc_row_inner el_id=”stoer”][vc_column_inner css=”.vc_custom_1549990831831{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 50px !important;}”][mk_fancy_title strip_tags=”true” tag_name=”h1″ color=”#95c11f” size=”28″ font_weight=”400″ letter_spacing=”1″ margin_bottom=”10″ font_family=”none” align=”center”]Tidal barrier St\u00f6r[\/mk_fancy_title][mk_fancy_title tag_name=”span” color=”#ffffff” size=”18″ font_family=”none” align=”center”]From our point of view, the tidal barrier at the mouth of the river St\u00f6r is the most cycle-friendly one since it is generally closed. Only if a ship arrives and signals that it wants to pass the tidal barrier, does the bridge operator open the bridge and lift the bridge deck (i. e. the road). For this reason, there are no set opening and closing hours.<\/span><\/p>\n

The opening of the bridge lasts about ten minutes. The perfect occasion to take a short break and watch the show.<\/span>[\/mk_fancy_title][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/mk_page_section][mk_page_section layout_structure=”half_right” bg_image=”https:\/\/gluecks-routen.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/sperrwerk-wischhafen-c-gdm-fotograf-kratz-1.jpg” bg_color=”#074f4f” full_width=”true” padding_top=”0″ padding_bottom=”0″ section_id=”wischhafen”][vc_column][vc_row_inner el_id=”wischhafen”][vc_column_inner css=”.vc_custom_1549990831831{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 50px !important;}”][mk_fancy_title strip_tags=”true” tag_name=”h1″ color=”#95c11f” size=”28″ font_weight=”400″ letter_spacing=”1″ margin_bottom=”10″ font_family=”none” align=”center”]Tidal barrier Wischhafen[\/mk_fancy_title][mk_fancy_title tag_name=”span” color=”#ffffff” size=”18″ font_family=”none” align=”center”]The bascule bridge across the tidal barrier in the river Wischhafener S\u00fcderelbe can be passed by pedestrians and cyclists from May to September during the following hours:<\/span><\/p>\n
