Nautical information: If the start and destination are swapped, please note the direction of river flow and weirs. The 7 kilometres long Unteruckersee lake can be a challenge if the weather is windy, so stay close to the shore if this is the case! There is a weir at the northern end of the lake, and you will have to carry the canoe. If the water level is too low, travelling along the following section is difficult, and it may be that boats need to be transported to the temporary camping area around 2 kilometres to the north of the weir at the mouth of the River Quillow (reached via Triftstraße).

Only experienced canoers should attempt to cross the Szczecin Lagoon.
