It's very difficult for paddlers to portage here. There's no trolley. We portaged the boat and placed it in the overflow channel below the weir. However, it was very difficult to reach and arduous.

The Stechlinsee Loop is currently closed due to a bridge closure near the former Rheinsberg power plant. Therefore, you must choose a suitable path, hiking counterclockwise, either along the water or through the forest above the lake.

Paddlers are allowed to pass the motorboats and park at the lock entrance. The lock operator will then signal when they are permitted to enter.

Gasthaus zum Löwen at the Strasen lock. Top-notch food, good beer, and accessible from the water.

A beautiful little church. Right next door is a village museum—the old fire station—and an information board about the village's history.
