The Jevenau is a 10 km long river that originates east of Jevenstedt at the confluence of the Brammer Au and Bokeler Au rivers, where it flows into the Kiel Canal.
Before the Kiel Canal was established, the Jevenau flowed into the Eider River.
The name "Jevenau" was first documented in 1339 as ad Yevenam. This probably derives from the Old Saxon Gevana, meaning "river rich in bounty" or "river rich in fish." Anglers value the waters for their populations of brown trout, eels, and perch.

The immediate shore path along the Kiel Canal must be crossed over the road bridge here because of the estuary.
A rich flora and fauna has developed on this beach-like biotope: Here you can admire many ducks, rats, and mosquitoes.
