The hiking trail "Hohes Elbufer" (W30) also runs along here, which I can highly recommend at this point. All information about the hiking trail can be found under the following link: https://wanderjugend.de/deutsche-wanderjugend/jugendwanderwege/die-jugendwanderwege/norddeutschland/hohes-elbufer (as of May 1, 2024).
