The navigable River Havel flows through the Ellbogensee, entering it at Priepert via a long channel from the Großer Priepertsee to the north, and exiting via a long channel to the Ziernsee to the east. At Strasen, at the western end of the lake, a canal and lock gives access to the Großer Pälitzsee, forming the first link of the Müritz–Havel–Wasserstraße. Navigation is administered as part of the Obere–Havel–Wasserstraße.
