Spreewald: Germany's Fairytale River Delta | Explore the Spree Forest by Kanoe, Boat and Bike
With its countless channels, rivers, and streams, the Spreewald or Spree Forest is a fascinating destination that’s only an hour’s train ride from Berlin. DW's Hannah Hummel explored the Spreewald with its myths and legends in a very environmentally friendly way - by boat, canoe, and bike. She enjoyed this huge wetland landscape that today - like elsewhere - is struggling with the consequences of climate change.

That fact that I instantly knew *which question* you meant really highlights, for me, just how right you are.
In was on my list from long , and as berlin resident it hight time I should visit this , thanks dw and Hannah again for wonderful information
Another Great Video. Hannah is right the countryside is beautiful.
Hannah always goes to lovely and fun places
It's one of the dream destinations of my life.
I visited Lubbenau/Blota last Sunday and fell in love with the place. Had lecker Kuchen at the town`s square in a cozy cafe with extrremely friendly staff. I loved the barge tour, the beautiful wooden houses with gardens, the tranquil canal waterways, the museum in Lehde. I speak a Slavic language related to Sorbian so it was funny to see the name Blota which in Polish means mud. I bought 2 sets of Spreewald Gurken which are a must if you`ve seen the movie "Goodbye Lenin". I will definitely go back there when I`m next time in Berlin. I love Spreewald!

Given that a lot of Germany’s rivers dried up this summer it’s really not that hard to imagine.

In the US, you could not have rented that kayak without wearing a life vest and most likely helmet. Also signing paperwork releasing the company from all liability if you drown. So much better in Germany as they seem to still value personal responsibility and lawyers haven't ruined every experience.

Der Spreewald besteht nicht nur aus Lübbenau und Lehde!

Yes, much more poetic than melting glaciers lol 😂
Take me with you next time .
I've seen a Char/Saibling in the waters. This species prefere to live in very clean environments. Spreewald waters must be really natural and clean.
Is this where the abandoned amusement park is?

No, you mean the Spreepark. It's in Berlin's Plänterwald, a huge park within the city.
Does Germany has untouched wilderness...like USA, Canada, Australia... 🤔

climate change has nothing to do with the odd year or two of dry summers, but other than that bit of WEF nonsense I quite enjoyed the video.
Hannah, you have picked up on so many languages being so smart. That is so awesome. When I save up enough money, I will come visit you and take you to dinner and we will walk and talk in your favorite country. If you are available. You are so perfect and travel like I would like too. And you make money doing it.
