Bialoleka, the northernmost district of Poland's capital Warsaw, marks the starting point of the Zeran canal (Kanal Zeranski in Polish), a man-made waterway that connects Warsaw's Vistula river with the Zegrze reservoir and, in turn, the Narew and Bug rivers. Averaging 25 m in width (reaching an impressive 41 m at its widest point) and measuring between 2.5 m and 3 m in depth, the canal flows from Warsaw's industrial port of Zeran along a course of 17.6 km, in places running parallel to the 633 main road, to reach the reservoir, situated close to the village of Nieporet. The canal passes through a lock (named after its constructor, engineer Tadeusz Tillinger) in Zeran and a weir in Nieporet. Along its entire length, the canal is crossed by one footbridge, eight road bridges and four railway bridges.

Campinas is a city in Brazil's federal state of São Paulo and lies roughly 100 km north of São Paulo. Approx. 1.2 million people inhabit an area of 796 km²; the metropolitan region of Campinas is densely populated and comprises 20 communes with a total population of about 3.7 million. The city, which was not given its current name until 1842, was founded by Bandeirantes, members of the Portuguese expedition troops and adventurers from the late 18th century. Since the middle of the 19th century, Campinas has been gradually growing: starting with the important export of coffee and the construction of large rail roads, the city has developed into the second largest city of the state of São Paulo and now boasts 17,000 areas of industry. Today, Campinas is the tenth richest city of Brazil and has a wide range of attractive industrial operations and university research centres.

The Kummerow lake in the Mecklenburg Lake District lies between the towns of Malchin, Dargun and Demmin, roughly 50 km north west of Neubrandenburg and about 70 km south of Stralsund. With a surface area of 33 km², a length of 11 km and a width of 3 km, it is the fourth biggest lake in Mecklenburg-Western Pommerania. It forms the heart of the "Mecklenburgische Schweiz und Kummerower See" nature reserve together with the Malchin lake that is located south west of it. Along with the Peene river and its tributaries, the Kummerow lake is a real gem in ecological terms and worthy of protection. The lake is well frequented by indigenous and northern bird species and an important water run-off and collection area. With its wetlands, a wide reaching reed belt, a large moraine landscape and, by no means least, a 37 m high cliff on the east side, it forms a generous, ecologically valuable area.
