A different world begins just a short drive from Berlin. No noise, no jostling - instead water as far as the eye can see. Lakes, rivers, quiet canals, small streams. Over 3,000 lakes and tens of thousands of kilometres of waterways run through Brandenburg like fine veins. Anyone travelling here by canoe is immersed in a slower pace of life.
Whether alone, in a group or on a guided tour, the lakes and rivers offer a relaxed adventure in natural surroundings. You can hire a canoe at more than 200 locations - often very easily. And then off you go: drift along, land, marvel. Maybe a picnic on the shore. Maybe just sit and watch. Brandenburg gives you space to take a deep breath. If you come from the city, you quickly realise how good it feels.
