Großer Spreewaldhafen Lübbenau
Who they are
The Großer Spreewaldhafen is the largest of Lübbenau's boat harbours. From here the punts, the Kähne, set out, taking visitors along the Spreewald canals to Lehde and beyond. The boatman pushes the boat with a pole and tells you about the landscape on the way.
What routes it runs
From April to October, the short route to Lehde takes two hours with a stop, or 90 minutes without one, and costs €17 (€9 for ages 4 to 11); the grand tour of Lehde, three hours with a stop, €20 (€11). The Große Schleusenkahnfahrt, five and a half hours with locks, leaves daily at 10:30 for €28 (€16). Between 15 May and 15 September there are full-day routes to the high forest (Hochwald) and evening trips. From November to March the winter punt runs, 75 minutes without stopping and with a hot drink, at 11:00 and 13:00, for €17 (€9).
How to book
The normal routes need no booking: you turn up and climb aboard. For the winter punt and the lock route they recommend booking by phone or at the harbour office. You can hire a whole boat, from 2 to 8 hours, at a time of your choosing.
