Ochtum Flood Barrier and Lock

Highlight • Structure

The Ochtum barrage is a comparatively small barrage. That's what makes it so charming. Sometimes a mobile snack bar is also open there.

Weser River Dike Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Very good asphalt and usually hardly anything going on. On the 5km you can let off steam or be challenged by the wind.

Lemwerder–Vegesack Ferry

During the crossing, which lasts only a few minutes, you feel for a brief moment as if you were on a real ship voyage. The costs for this are kept …

Cycle path between the Freight Transport Centre and Neustädter Harbour

Just before you get back to Bremen, here is another great section of the route. Straight, relatively intact asphalt - but a little narrow with oncoming traffic.

Great training with hardly any wind (really rare) and brilliant sunshine. A nice ride along the Weserside Gallery – unfortunately, no view of the graffiti.

I spontaneously took advantage of the few rays of sunshine and did a relaxed 34 km. It was nice in the lower GA2. A few easy pace and power intervals were a must. It was hardly busy anyway, so it was doubly worth it.
