The Lachte is an approximately 38 kilometers long right tributary of the Aller in Lower Saxony . It drains a very wooded catchment area of ​​the eastern Südheide and has an average water flow of around 2.9 m³ / s at the mouth. The river system has a strikingly parallel water structure and is largely located in the Südheide Nature Park . It contains some ecologically very high quality water sections.

Ford through the Lachte in Steinhorst
Confluence of the Lachte (right) and Lutter, north of Jarnsen , municipality of Lachendorf

The Lachte rises in the northern district of Gifhorn, southwest of the town of Sprakensehl . It initially flows in a south-westerly direction and feeds a 5 km long chain of fish ponds at Gut Auermühle . Then it takes the Kainbach from the left and the Jafelbach below Steinhorst . In Steinhorst (with a water wheel in the municipal coat of arms ) a paved ford leads through the river. At Beedenbostel , district of Celle , the largest tributaries of the Lachte, the Lutter and the Aschau flow from the right . The Lutter is actually the larger river at the confluence with the Lachte. At Lachendorf the river turns west and flows into the Aller at Lachtehausen, a district of the city of Celle .

Even if it only follows the river on its western section, the Celle-Wittingen small railway is also called the Lachtalbahn .

Protected areas

In 1997 the nature reserve Obere Lachte, Kainbach, Jafelbach was established with a size of 1090 ha. Since 2009, the Lachte in the 489 hectare nature reserve Lachte has also been under nature protection in the district of Celle. A total of 4014 hectares of the river system of the Lachte including the Lutter and some tributaries are under nature protection, 5113 form the FFH area “Lutter, Lachte, Aschau (with some tributaries)”. Part of it is in the Südheide Nature Park .

Paddling on the laugh

Navigation regulation of rivers in the district of Celle

Due to the great importance of nature conservation for this river, the boat operation on the Lachte leads to conflicts with the nature conservation groups; in particular through disturbance of the animal world, damage to bank vegetation and negative changes in the river bed. As a compromise solution, paddling is only permitted to a limited extent in the period from May 16 to October 14, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on the Lachte. Only marked paddle boats ( kayak , canoe , canoe ) with a maximum length of 6 m and a width of 1 m are permitted . If the water level is sufficient (pay attention to the level indicator), the Lachte can be used from the Beedenbostel - Jarnsen road bridge downstream. Entry and exit points are in Jarnsen and Lachendorf.
