Beautiful Deichstraße, but beware, this small, narrow road is a country road and from Buxtehude to Cranz (with a small exception in the town center of about 300 meters at 30 km/h) is allowed for cars at 50 km/h.

From Moorburg you can cycle very nicely on the dike into the old country. In late summer you can see thousands of apple trees with ripe fruit.

Next to the bridge, the "Hanseatenweg" leads through a small wetland. A good alternative to the road towards Cranz. An old wooden bridge is currently not accessible (5/2020), but the path leads through an apple orchard.
