Water hiking
The Schwarze Elster is a shallow river that flows into the Elbe after 175 kilometres. There are well-equipped landing stages and rest areas along the way from Bad Liebenwerda to Uebigau and on to Herzberg. The Kleine Elster, which flows into the Schwarze Elster near Wahrenbrück, can also be travelled from Thalberg. This is where the "Little Spreewald" is located.
The Schwarze Elster and the Kleine Elster can be explored in both directions.
