The route between Aken and Dessau is one of the most beautiful tours along the Elbe. The path leads from the ferry in Aken (ferry house with restaurant) to the Kornhaus (excursion restaurant in Bauhaus style) in Dessau. It is pure nature, there are many beautiful views of the Elbe with light sandbanks. The opposite restaurant in Brambach can be reached by a shuttle service. This route is highly recommended.
