Waterways of East Friesland
River Leda is a tributary to River Ems and is together with Sagter Ems navigable for 25 km. The best known harbor town is Leer. Then the waterway goes into
Elisabethfehnkanal which leads to the Küstenkanal. Another one of these beautiful Frisian waters, which has also the advantage to be navigable for a bit bigger boats too.

Sagterems
Turns off to the south at the stitch canal to Elisabethfehnkanal and is navigable until Strücklingen.

Hauptfehnkanal
This short canal assures the connection from Leda to the places Rhauderfehn and Ostrhauderfehn.

Tourism
Once passed the very nice city of Leer, this trip offers untouched landscapes only. However, one can find along two branches of River Leda small villages with marinas, on the Sagter Ems its Strücklingen and on the Soeste the village Barssel (it has 6 water sport clubs).

Wine and Dine
I would like to point out to the collected recipes of Manfred Becker!
